Andy Bull feat. Lisa Mitchell - Dog


I’m a sucker for ¾ time. I love how it prods into your inner rhythms and makes you want to dance with its waltzy effects. Andy Bull’s Dog successfully brings that to the floor. The song features Lisa Mitchell, but the charm does not lie in her hands (though her voice is to be accredited for melding pleasantly with the voice of Andy Bull). This week it’s been getting more attention on Triple J.

The piano interludes are somewhat refreshing. You do not hear the usual plain chord progression, or a simple melody that leads to nowhere. Instead Bull brings us an interesting piano-solo, injected with ferocious rhythms and musical embellishments, giving the song a certain depth of sophistication. The loose vocals featured in the chorus uplifts the song and will make you beam with joy.

Musically, it is full of the delights of Spring, yet is accompanied by darker lyrics threaded around the idea depression. It caters to all who appreciate lyrical and musical bliss.
