Ferocious Dog return to Bedford Esquires on Saturday (Oct 30) as part of their 'The Hope' tour.
They've been hailed as "a representation of our gut feeling, savage and merciless" and at the same time, called "folk in the grand tradition of it being the peoples sound."
Ferocious Dog, however are all those things. More than a band, they are a family.
A band that does drives for foodbanks - not for headlines, but because it was the right thing to do - a band that welcomes Hunt Sabs and conservationists Sea Shepherd to their shows, but a band where none of that really matters.
Ferocious Dog is the group where fans are tattooed in the shop belonging to the lead singer, Ken Bonsall, where the violinist and band leader, Dan Booth prints the posters, and Les Carter (ex-Carter USM) plays the lead guitar.
They can wow a punk festival one minute, a folk festival the next - and fit right in anywhere.

With Bonsall and Booth and Carter combining and John Leonard playing just about everything with strings, while the rhythm section of Alex Smith and John Alexander bring the power and energy, you have a whole greater than the sum of its parts.
Bonsall promising some surprises during this weekend's gig. "There's a reason we've called this run more Fake News" he smiled.
"We have songs on this album that we haven't played yet and we really want to, stuff like "Yellow Feather" about a Hell Hound that is no longer with us...."
Tony Wright, lead singer of Britrock sensations Terrorvision is the evening's special guest. Expect hits from his previous band(s) songs from his highly acclaimed solo albums.
