Dressed Like Wolves

Dressed Like Wolves is Thornaby’s Rick Dobbing writing songs about the things that make you feel the most. He makes music to keep the glass half full and hardly ever does a chorus. Rick is currently working on an EP which sounds a bit like if Frank Ocean was from Teesside and buzzed off Bright Eyes (and still didn’t do any choruses). Rick has have been making music in attics and small bedrooms since 2009 playing shows in barbers shops, vintage shops, laundrettes, tea rooms, replica ships and even some regular venues too. They've played with bands such as Wolf Alice, Trust Fund, J.P Cooper, Jeffrey Lewis, Sam Fender, The Burning Hell, Darren Hayman and Withered Hand. The band have performed on Balcony TV and had their song 'Death Of Girls' used on radio advertisements for BBC Radio 4. As well as having songs played on Amazing Radio, BBC 6 Music and Radio 1. “In the great tradition of great British eccentrics” – Tom Robinson. BBC Radio 6 Music “Bright Eyes with Balls.” – Wolf Alice. “Dobbing’s part-whispered delivery always feels like he’s holding back on spilling a terrible secret, sick of carrying the burden. It’s this presence that adds so much weight to his usually folky, emotive songs about the stresses of human relationships.” – GoldFlakePaint “Some pretty cute indie rock.” - Anthony Fantano (The Needle Drop)
