The Royal George has teamed up with Bitrate Sound to give some of the UK’s best unsigned bands the chance to spread the word and get their voices heard. Bad Dog are the first band to take to the stage with their powerhouse blues rock style.
The seven-piece favour a classic driving combo of bass, drums, guitar and harmonica with solid three-piece vocals.
