Speaker 15: Dog eate Dog here with us alive in studio.
Speaker 16: We have Meg and Sarah here on this Saturday morning,
Speaker 16: and I feel like the secret weapon is the two
Speaker 16: of you singing together, you know what I mean, Like,
Speaker 16: I mean, it's.
Speaker 20: Just that's most like you know, I feel like once
Speaker 20: we start doing that, we're like, okay, like this is
Speaker 20: something we need to like harness and like combined efforts.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Yeah, was that?
Speaker 16: I mean, was it like that from the beginning of
Speaker 16: the two of you working, Like did that just come immediately?
Speaker 18: Like that it kind of grew.
Speaker 20: I feel like I was always kind of like, I
Speaker 20: don't know if you ever heard of like lead singeritis,
Speaker 20: like yeah, people, yeah, And I always had a hard
Speaker 20: time with that. And when Sarah joined the band, it
Speaker 20: was kind of this thing. It was like, Okay, are
Speaker 20: we gonna switch off? Or like what are we gonna do?
Speaker 20: Like I knew I like wanted, you know, another female,
Speaker 20: and I knew it like for a while and I
Speaker 20: and I just I was like, oh, she's perfect. Yeah,
Speaker 20: and it just you know, she really really really helped me.
Speaker 20: That's kind of a big strength of hers is just
Speaker 20: like harmonies, yeah, and you know, singing it like just
Speaker 20: finding a way to like mesh with other people. And
Speaker 20: so that was just like such a huge help in
Speaker 20: my like like bringing my musicianship up a notch.
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, because that was my And I said that
Speaker 16: to Jenny too that night that I I saw you
Speaker 16: play it at Spelfy Fest. It's like when they sing together,
Speaker 16: it's just it's incredible, you know, it's really powerful. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 16: it's a great it's.
Speaker 19: A great experience.
Speaker 21: And I think one of my first actually, I think
Speaker 21: the first gig I played with you guys.
Speaker 19: We were learning B fifty two songs. Yeah, I think
Speaker 19: it was my idea. I don't want to take credit,
Speaker 19: but I love the B fifty two's.
Speaker 21: But we had to get ready for some Halloween thing
Speaker 21: where the band's in the in the lineup had to
Speaker 21: like do songs from the band.
Speaker 19: Yeah, and we chose to be picked that because of.
Speaker 16: That, the choice arts that we needed for it.
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 19: That really pushed us to lock in.
Speaker 21: Yeah, and I don't have a lot of I mean,
Speaker 21: I do have experience sing with other people, but not
Speaker 21: in this setting and with someone who's as much of
Speaker 21: a powerhouse as Meg, so it's pretty dope.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Yeah, no, that's awesome.
Speaker 20: We did, like what we did rock lobster.
Speaker 19: My top played songs of like twenty Yeah.

Speaker 20: head the whole.
Speaker 19: I just got to get rid of it to the crib.
Speaker 15: That's awesome. That's awesome.
Speaker 16: Now how many how many original songs does dogg a
Speaker 16: Dog have at this point?
Speaker 13: Oh?
Speaker 8: Like, h.
Speaker 15: I think I don't think you played any covers. It's
Speaker 15: spelfy Fest, right or did you remember?
Speaker 19: We must? We probably did a few. Remember what what
Speaker 19: covers we were doing.
Speaker 20: We were at a transitionary period that at that time too,
Speaker 20: because our guitar player had our guitar player had moved
Speaker 20: like he was moving on to other things, so we
Speaker 20: were looking for a lead guitar player. That's when Brad
Speaker 20: came up, like pretty much for the first time. Oh
Speaker 20: really yeah, and we were like, oh man, this works.
Speaker 20: So that's how we like we snagged Brad.
Speaker 16: Oh okay, pretty lucky.
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 20: I think probably around like fifty probably like fifteen, like
Speaker 20: I don't know, like like ten.
Speaker 19: Definitely albums worth.
Speaker 20: Yeah, we like we're always working on different stuff. It's
Speaker 20: mostly the songwriting is mostly me and Sarah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 20: and collaborating and with us, and then we kind of
Speaker 20: like bring our songs to the band and they kind
Speaker 20: of do their thing with it, which is pretty cool.
Speaker 19: You guys definitely have I think most of the catalog
Speaker 19: still existed before I joined.
Speaker 20: Yeah, okay, yeah, it's a lot of Some of this
Speaker 20: stuff is like stuff because I we were in a
Speaker 20: band called out of Water before dog It dog Me
Speaker 20: Chris and Santino, and I was just a singer. I
Speaker 20: didn't really play guitar yet much. So we kind of
Speaker 20: just threw a couple of songs together because out of
Speaker 20: Water had fallen apart, and then we were like, oh,
Speaker 20: this kind of works, and so we started doing that.

Speaker 20: Honestly, like, I don't know. We were just like really
Speaker 20: trying to find a name, and I I heard the
Speaker 20: term like dog eat dog world, and I just like
Speaker 20: felt like, I don't know, it was like a funny thing.
Speaker 20: And then like the logo I thought was cool because
Speaker 20: the dog with the eight and the dog and yeah,
Speaker 20: and the we had our friend, my friend Mallory Vass
Speaker 20: designed like a little logo when we were talking about
Speaker 20: it with like the eight ball in the middle, and
Speaker 20: I was like, oh, this is cool. Yeah. So it's
Speaker 20: like it's just kind of like an ode to, uh,
Speaker 20: how crappy the world can be sometimes, but how we
Speaker 20: can fight it with music and stuff.
Speaker 15: I like that.
Speaker 3: I like that.
Speaker 16: I'm curious to know too, how how each of you
Speaker 16: learned to sing, if you're if you had formal training
Speaker 16: or if you're self taught or whatever, because you both
Speaker 16: have such great voices. And again, you know, like I said,
Speaker 16: I feel like your secret weapon is how how well
Speaker 16: they work together, but also too individually. You both sing
Speaker 16: just really really well. I'm jealous. I went through like
Speaker 16: three different vocal teachers and I still can't sing. But
Speaker 16: so I'm really curious how you both learned to sing.
Speaker 16: I want to go first there.
Speaker 21: Sure, well, I grew up watching my mother sing in church,
Speaker 21: so that was a really good start, and she was.
Speaker 19: A canter the family mass downstairs.
Speaker 21: And then I joined the teen choir when I got
Speaker 21: a bit older, and then when I got sick of that.
Speaker 21: I mean, choir is beautiful, but I would join a
Speaker 21: women's choir again, honestly. But I did some like musical
Speaker 21: theater here and there. I'm not a theater geek, but
Speaker 21: I did some every now and then, and so most
Speaker 21: of my life. I guess you could say I've been singing,
Speaker 21: but the lessons were a little on and off. Yeah,
Speaker 21: it's just something I've always loved to do. Yeah, I
Speaker 21: don't sing fancy schmancy like Whitney Houston or.
Speaker 27: I beg to differ.
Speaker 19: I mean, when the mood strikes and get enough drinks
Speaker 19: in me. But you know, it's I don't know, I
Speaker 19: just I love it. It's what I've been doing my
Speaker 19: whole life. You're you're a theater geek. I'm really not,
Speaker 19: though I haven't even seen Wicked yet.
Speaker 16: No, I'm it's cool though that you started out, you know,
Speaker 16: having a mom who sang yeah. You know that that
Speaker 16: probably gave you a good push right in that direction.
Speaker 19: Really did. She's great she because she would sing low
Speaker 19: and then she'd sing hi.
Speaker 21: And it's funny. Her name is Jonie as well. And
Speaker 21: I've really been into Joni Mitchell recent oh really yeah.
Speaker 19: The past couple of years. More, I'm like, why have
Speaker 19: I not listened to her more? I feel like the
Speaker 19: parts of her voice that she would use are parts
Speaker 19: that I like to use and don't want to be shy.
Speaker 19: I don't want to shy away. I don't feel like.
Speaker 20: I have to. I don't know, like sing any sort
Speaker 20: of thing.
Speaker 21: Singing with your head voice is such a beautiful sound
Speaker 21: that I feel maybe we don't hear enough on popular
Speaker 21: radio as often, if.
Speaker 19: That makes sense.
Speaker 21: And when I just I listened through on the Blue
Speaker 21: album and you Meg, you love that album too, You're
Speaker 21: a Joni fan and she just uses her voice as
Speaker 21: an instrument, and.
Speaker 16: I think it's yeah, there's really no.
Speaker 19: There's no limits.
Speaker 15: Is your mom supportive? Like, does she come see you
Speaker 15: live and everything.
Speaker 21: She hasn't been to the rock shows, and I get it,
Speaker 21: you know, not everybody, not everybody's parents are into that.
Speaker 19: But she will come to my solo gigs, my duo gigs.
Speaker 21: And yeah, she came to one last month and she's
Speaker 21: really She saw us do the songs that we just
Speaker 21: did and she seemed really really impressed. Like, oh, like
Speaker 21: not only she's singing, but she's writing and working with
Speaker 21: this other musician who's really passionate.
Speaker 20: Yeah, your dad was like super super excited about it.
Speaker 20: Her dad's also a musician. Oh okay, piano player.
Speaker 15: Oh no kidding.
Speaker 19: Jazz at Berkeley grad.
Speaker 21: Oh came from New Zealand in nineteen eighty and oh wow,
Speaker 21: he went there and then he taught there. He hasn't
Speaker 21: taught there since I was a little kid. But he
Speaker 21: and my mom met at a at a restaurant. My
Speaker 21: mom was singing and she was a singing waitress and
Speaker 21: my dad was called Lonesome Joe, that's.
Speaker 19: Not his real name. He played the piano and they
Speaker 19: found each other that way, and it's pretty cool.
Speaker 16: Yeah, music is just in my family.
Speaker 15: That's awesome. Did he teach you how to play piano
Speaker 15: or he will.
Speaker 19: Teach me some things. But I think it's just he
Speaker 19: could teach me a lot more. But I think it's
Speaker 19: just that he's my dad, where sometimes I want to
Speaker 19: do everything myself.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 16: Yeah, and now I get that I'm still a kid at.
Speaker 21: Heart, but he'll like get me, get the ball rolling
Speaker 21: for me if I want to learn like a bread
Speaker 21: song or an Elton John song.
Speaker 16: Oh, very cool, very cool, And how about how about you?
Speaker 15: Meg?
Speaker 20: I'm like, I'm not too much formally trained. I think
Speaker 20: like my sister was a big inspiration to me. She
Speaker 20: was always in theater and stuff. Her name's Kelsey Collins.
Speaker 20: She I don't know. Her and her husband are local musicians,
Speaker 20: Malcolm Homes. He's on. They're good friends with Robosavado. Oh okay, yeah,
Speaker 20: they do his show sometimes.
Speaker 15: Oh okay.
Speaker 20: But she is an amazing singer and I I just
Speaker 20: grew up and she was always like just the music one,
Speaker 20: and we would go see her theater shows and she
Speaker 20: played piano, and I just always looked up to her
Speaker 20: so much. Yeah, but it was more like singing to
Speaker 20: myself a lot. And then I got I went to
Speaker 20: high school with Chris Drew our bass player and our
Speaker 20: band now and we weren't too close. But when I
Speaker 20: was like twenty, i'd like to say he they had
Speaker 20: a band called out of Water and he was I
Speaker 20: had messaged him about it and was like, oh, it's
Speaker 20: so cool, Like you're in a band. I want to
Speaker 20: come check you guys out. I want to be in
Speaker 20: a band someday.
Speaker 27: I love to sing.
Speaker 20: And he was like, oh, like our singer actually just quit,
Speaker 20: so like, do you want to come try out? So
Speaker 20: I had never really formally sang or I never even
Speaker 20: sang into a microphone or anything. Okay, they gave me
Speaker 20: a chance, and I I've definitely been working on like
Speaker 20: my skills since, but just kind of just I love
Speaker 20: doing it. I love the expressive aspect of it, just
Speaker 20: like writing your own words and then being able to
Speaker 20: express them in the way that you want.
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, awesome, awesome. No, And then the two of you,
Speaker 16: like I said, the two of you singing together is fantastic.
Speaker 16: And where was the single that we played.
Speaker 15: When we open up?
Speaker 12: So what was it?
Speaker 16: Oh?
Speaker 15: Final Warning? Where was that recorded?
Speaker 23: Oh?
Speaker 19: We did that on our own, did you?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 15: That was really good. It's it's cool that you know.
Speaker 16: We live in an era where there's so many different
Speaker 16: options as far as recording, you know, and you can
Speaker 16: do You can do something on your own and make
Speaker 16: it sound like it was done a million dollar studio.
Speaker 20: Yeah. Yeah, we're hoping to get with with Pete soon too.
Speaker 20: Gary had mentioned him. Yes, he's just become like someone
Speaker 20: that a lot of people in the music scene use.
Speaker 20: He's super professional and just like, really.
Speaker 15: What's his last name?
Speaker 22: I forget.
Speaker 16: It's like because I feel like I know who you're
Speaker 16: talking about, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 20: Blanking on his last name. He's done like he did
Speaker 20: halfway there for us. He's done a lot of the
Speaker 20: Fox and Flamingos stuff, percussive maintenance stuff.
Speaker 15: It's not Pequin.
Speaker 16: I don't know.
Speaker 20: But yeah, I also wanted to take a chance to
