Dogs of Society ROCKS the spot-on sounds of classic ‘70s Elton, with all the heat of the original vinyl, in an ALL-LIVE rock concert experience.

Led by John Gore’s “spot-on” vocals, The Dogs deliver a rockin' musical experience more faithful to the spirit of the classic Elton John recordings, rather than a flamboyant imitation. Featuring a killer lineup of accomplished musicians including John Gore, Steve Johnston, Louis Michael, Curt Shaw and Dave Johnson, the seasoned pros of Dogs of Society can often be found playing shows throughout the Midwest.

Inspired by Elton John from the earliest years, John Gore knew piano was the instrument for him. Elton’s soaring melodies, trippy lyrics and killer rock hooks led him to form Dogs of Society in 2012. With the broad appeal of Elton John’s well-loved catalog of hits, John Gore believes Elton’s songs are the star of The Dogs’ show, from smash hits like Bennie and the Jets to Tiny Dancer and Crocodile Rock to deeper cuts like Funeral for a Friend, Madman Across the Water, Mona Lisas & Mad Hatters and many, many more.

Dogs of Society has ROCKED crowds as large as 8,000 at arenas, large outdoor shows, city-wide celebrations, tribute concert series and national fundraisers, plus SOLD OUT shows at intimate theatre venues.

This big-production benefit concert November 11, 2017 kicks off The Dogs of Society Scholarship at Lewis & Clark Community College. 50% of the night’s proceeds directly fund this new resource, providing financial assistance to music students to further their studies in music production and performance ensembles. Dogs' keyboardist Louis Michael is the Music Coordinator and a Professor of Music at LCCC. Louis, Elton Juan and all The Dogs are thrilled to be a part of this initiative to support music education!
