| The Old Dogs are a Detroit classic rock/soul/funk cover band. From Seger to Stevie Wonder, from Tower of Power to Grand Funk, the Old Dogs play a wide-ranging repertoire. Not the usual classic rock cover band, The Old Dogs lean toward the "deeper cuts" from great bands and artists from back in the day. Rather than emulate a jukebox of the same old standards heard thousands of times, The Old Dogs prioritize musicianship and showmanship in order to deliver a night of invigorating, infectious rock and soul via a constantly evolving repertoire. This band has chops and definitely not afraid to use them. What it means for the audience is an evening of familiar classic tunes delivered with spirited fun, swagger and zeal, from one of the sharpest bands in town. |
