One to watch: Fat Dog

With a riotous sound part Nine Inch Nails, part Depeche Mode, the south London five-piece are shoo-ins for a mainstage festival slot

South London-based Fat Dog are the latest band signed by Domino, the label behind acts such as Wet Leg, Arctic Monkeys and Hot Chip. Formed during lockdown, the quintet have built a word-of-mouth reputation thanks to their boisterous live performances: moshpits are commonplace, and drummer, Johnny “Doghead” Hutchinson, plays in a latex dog mask. Fat Dog’s three singles have been written by frontman and guitarist Joe Love, with super producer James Ford(Gorillaz, Pet Shop Boys).
