Very well done.  YOur use of electronics is not at all out of place.  It works.  People try to incorporate electronics and synths and it seems like they're trying to hard.  Especially when theirs a folk influence.  Once again great vocals.

Custom Dog Is Blue fuzz pedal on Korg Polysix!

We've recorded more versions of this J.J. Cale tune than just about any other song. I'm not sure this is the definitive, but it's definitely the most recent... 

For anyone curious what the Dog Is Blue fuzz pedals sound like on other instruments check out the chainsaw keyboard towards the end. 

Call The Doctor

Lyrics:
I live in the walls of this house
No one's seen me these past few months
I don't feel lonely or look for attention
But sometimes I wish they'd ask where I went

I stand in the bedroom doorway
Playing music with no enjoyment
I sing songs to help me cope with
My aloneness and nothing more than that

Do you hear the noise coming out the vents
It's so faint, so sweet
The same words just keep repeating
Are you gonna leave are you gonna leave

Hey!
I'm an alien to my hometown
The freaks all died or left me behind
I hate change but something needs to happen
Before I'm completely forgotten

I can dream of a better life
I could be anything I like
It's a shame I just waste my time
Playing songs, hating what I write
I can dream of a better life
I could be anything I like
It's a shame I just waste my time
Playing songs, hating what I write

Oh someone's got a new appointment
With the rats living in our basement
We negotiate terms for a new deal
To trade roles in civilization

Do you hear the noise coming out the vents
It's so faint, so sweet
The same words just keep repeating
Are you gonna leave are you gonna leave

Hamilton’s Dog Is Blue is an indie-folk duo that is made up of Paul Watson, principal songwriter and cookie-tin pedal enthusiast, and Laura Heaney, purveyor of ghost-noises and multi-instrumentalist extraordinaire. Together they ramble around proudly with all the jangly toys of a tickle-trunk and the surefooted bravado of travelling snake-oil salesmen.

Lighthearted in their dedication to the ephemeral, the duo get their ya-yas out peddling a unique brand of self-described Garage-Folk.

Dog Is Blue released their debut album, …Makes Ghost Noises, independently to positive reviews in March 2009. They have since toured eastern Canada and played regular southern Ontario shows with the likes of Wax Mannequin, Shotgun Jimmie, The Burning Hell and more.
