Dr. Dog

In September 2006, when Dr. Dog delivered their captivating performance at Café du Nord in San Francisco, they were riding high on the momentum of their album *We All Belong*, which had just released earlier that year. This album showcased their distinctive blend of indie rock with folk and soulful undertones, a sound that resonated beautifully with audiences and critics alike. The band, known for their engaging live shows, was still carving out their niche in the music scene, establishing a solid fan base as they opened for notable acts like Cold War Kids. It's fascinating to think about how, at this point in their career, Dr. Dog was balancing the indie spirit with aspirations of wider recognition, setting the stage for their future successes. That night at Café du Nord, they not only showcased some of their new material but also highlighted the infectious energy that would become a hallmark of their live performances. It’s a moment that captured the essence of their journey, as they evolved from a local band to a beloved staple in the indie music community.
