HEART OF A DOG // HOSS Norwich’s favourite 2(+X) piece have a newsingle. 
A gorgeous dose ofrhythmic folk pop called HOSS.
 
HOSS // 
 
Opening with a looping backwards guitar intro, it then bounds along via sumptuous vocals, tumbling guitar lines and 
at least 1 false ending, towards a soaring, triumphant conclusion. 
 
Restraint repeatedly turns to release, and back again. 
 
Produced by Iain Lowery (Lost Levels) and featuring Will Bloomfield (Port Isla). 
 
 
HEART OF A DOG // 
 
Born in the West Midlands, exiled to East Anglia. 
A lapsed duo, now joined by a interchangeable line-up of guest musicians and silent partners. 
HOAD create an often tangible soundscape, characterised by a potent fusion of percussive, compelling rhythms that nurture tender melodies. 
Thoughtfully unaffected lyrics and rich harmonies yield a sound that manages to be both soulful and distinctively 
authentic. 
Following the release of their second EP on Bare Feet Records, Heart of a Dog embarked on a UK tour, including a support slot with experimental Welsh art-rockers Islet, a live session with New York station Breakthru Radio and a storming set at the John Peel Festival of New Music. 
 
QUOTES //

“One of the best bands to come out of Norwich in years – Twin Peaks with a Midlands Accent” - BBC Introducing 
“Wavering beautifully between strength and vulnerability, holding the audience entranced between these two 
waypoints” - Apeman
