Voici quelques morceaux pour vous donner une idée de ce que nous faisons.

Anikó Tóth est une chanteuse et multi-instrumentiste américaine dont la voix soul et le jeu expressif au clavier apportent profondeur et intensité émotionnelle au son de Doghouse. Issue du folk, du jazz et du blues, son style vocal allie puissance brute et maîtrise nuancée. Interprète chevronnée, forte d'une expérience en concert et en studio, la présence scénique et le talent musical d'Anikó contribuent à l'alchimie dynamique du groupe.

Aniko s'est produite avec l'Orchestre philharmonique de Liverpool, le Hallé Orchestra et le Reflektor de Jan Kopinski, et a apporté son style vocal distinctif à des collaborations avec Meredith Monk, Thelma Houston et Roger McGough (The Scaffold).

Désormais installée en France, elle apporte une touche transatlantique au blues-rock brut de Doghouse.

In the Doghouse

At some point, I’m going to get you all up to date with what’s been going on with the studio build in France, but, for now, I’ll just say that we are up and running and having a blast.

Now we have a little more time than during the construction, we can focus a little on our own music projects. One of these is our blues rock band Doghouse.
