" I had heard through Clayton Anderson that Walter was working on a project. And had gotten word to Walt that I would play his music on my Sunday night program.
I recently did an interview with Walt for my radio show in Bishop, CA. Walt is our boy, from our valley. His inspiration is his love, his life, and the people he collaborates with. It's blues with a message, a feel, makes you want to get up and shuffle! Get your copy today!!!!! TODAY!!!!! " Ron "Dink" Knox

Roots Rock, and Blues, from the high desert of the Owens Valley/Mammoth Lakes region of California's Eastern High Sierra's. The band came together in 2001, but several of the members had played together for years. They started out to just play the music they loved, Blues, and Roots Rock.

Roots Rockin' Blues,..or Blues Rockin' Roots Music?

The first CD from a band with about 125 years combined experence. Out of the high desert of California, comes Howlin' Dogma. This isn't your typical "Retro" type blues band. You won't find Fedora's, Zoot suits, or two-toned shoes here. Like so many of the other modern Blues bands these days, they aren't tring to recreate some long lost 1950's sound,(although we love and respect most all those folks, it just ain't us!). This is much more like the Rockin' Blues of the 1970's. Like an old familiar LP that you've owned for years. Blues with a little harder edge. This is serious blue collar, working class music. This is the kind of music you find in the roadhouses, and neighborhood bars. The kind you ride your Harley out to see. The kind you go out to drink, dance, and sometimes fight to. Music of the people, by the people, and for the people.------------American Music!
