Easy Beat was the title of Philadelphia quintet Dr. Dog’s third album, and it makes for a pretty dandy description of the band’s playful, harmony-steeped ’60s pop and Philly-soul sound, too. Debuting with 2001’s Psychedelic Swamp, Dr. Dog nurtured a small cult following for a few years before landing a tour with My Morning Jacket and warm reviews for 2004’s Easy Beat. After that, the cult following went national, and by 2007’s We All Belong, the band was touring with some of the hottest bands in the country (including the Strokes, the Raconteurs and Wilco). Last year saw the release of Dr. Dog’s fifth album, Fate, as well as a the band’s first compilation, Passed Away, Vol. 1.
