In dogs we trust.

Fresh of the back of a massive few months which has seen them perform their debut UK shows, support Royel Otis on their Aus tour, and gain rotation on triple j. Known for their vintage-tinged, shimmering indie-rock, they’ve now turned their attention to life’s furry companions, dogs for their latest tune.

“This song is for all the people who immediately locate the dog at a house party and spend the whole night with them,” the band says. “And those who say they’re too busy to come out as they’ve already got plans (with their dog). When everything’s going wrong and people in your life are disappointing you, you can always trust a doggo to make you feel better. They don’t talk back or give you any shit – they just radiate pure joy, and when they eventually depart this world, a piece of you goes with them.”

The tune sees bassist and singer Renee de la Motte take the vocal reigns with Thom Eagleton strumming away in support. Here she gives shades of 60s pop with plenty of wooos for us to sing along to as Strokes-y guitar lines add some spice to the verses.

The clip, which was shot by Yeah Rad, feature’s the duo’s dog Chili and will surely have dog lovers around the country saying “awwwwwwwwww” as they watch on:
