The Butchers Dog is a five piece band from Norfolk. We mainly go out as a full electric band that has its own PA and lighting rig. We are constantly evolving our setlist which mainly includes obscure songs from Northern Soul to 60s rock to anything we want really! We curate this list to be a good night out for people with interesting musical tastes. From Gil Scot Heron to Booker T to The Sonics to The Rolling Stones.
We also run as an acoustic outfit - either totally acoustic which is perfect for small pubs, great for fireside sing alongs.
We can also do a mid level set up which is not as loud and much smaller - a hybrid of acoustic and electric.

Canning originally trained as an Olympic luge rider at the world famous Holyhead Academy of Luging.

He now lives in Norfolk under the protection of the Breckland council witness protection programme.
Andrew Sykes
Andrew plays the bass and very much enjoys it. Some people say that the bass is just a guitar for people who can't cope with chords. They are wrong.

Rob Longfoot
Rob Longfoot, born during a thunderstorm in 1980 and raised by a family of rhythm-loving raccoons, emerged onto the music scene wearing neon socks and a hat made of recycled drumsticks. His drumming journey started when he traded his pet parrot for a beat-up drum kit he found in a mysterious alley. Rob's rhythmic magic, infused with the energy of intergalactic polka, has propelled him through a surreal career. From jamming with extraterrestrial jazz ensembles to leading a band of sentient drum machines, Rob Longfoot has become the eccentric maestro of the absurd, captivating audiences across dimensions.
