Dawg House
"In November of 1992, the founder members of Dawg House - Baz Mungham and Wayne Beauchamp - met when Baz had been referred to Wayne for guitar lessons in 'Elvis Style' and to possibly purchase a semi-acoustic guitar that Wayne had for sale. At the time Wayne was looking for a double bass player to complete the line-up for his band called Dixie Fried which had just lost theirs. After an evening's discussion about what got them excited, Baz agreed to have a go at slap bass and it was convenient that Wayne just happened to have one lying around. As soon as it looked like the band might be up and running the drummer from Dixie Fried quit as his mum wouldn't let him have a drum kit in the house! A few auditions later they found a local blues drummer, Gordon, who was enthusiastic although he'd never heard of rockabilly. Gordon then went on to play with the band for the best part of the next six years. Dixie Fried sorted out some songs and recorded a demo only to find out that their name was already being used by two other bands on the scene. It was then that they changed the name to Dawg House after the American slang term for the double bass, which plays such an important part in the whole rockabilly style. It was also about this time that Dave Rounce (formerly of eighties recording band, Stage Frite) voiced an interest in joining and was snapped up immediately......." From Dawg House website
"A retro sound in the mix, which starts with a catchy track, She Ain't Mine, a strong, twangy bass thumper of a track and the best opener for the album. The rest of the CD follows suit, bar the odd slower track. Watchin' You, Don’t Shout and Boneshaker prove the band have the ability to write some good songs." Eastern Evening News, August 1997
