Jarring guitar riffs and pounding drums routinely give way to dancehall-style vocals and beats. Canada’s Music Magazine, Exclaim!

Dodger finds common ground between blistering urban hardcore and sweltering Caribbean rhythms, but they have more in common with Bad Brains than Bob Marley. Jarring guitar riffs and pounding drums routinely give way to dancehall-style vocals and beats. Canada’s Music Magazine, Exclaim! Following up their successful EP Musth, rock reggae quintet Dodger are back with their new EP ABombANation. Produced by Upper Left Side’s Jag Tanna (I Mother Earth), ABombANation features 5 hard hitting melodic rock tracks with a strong reggae-ska influence. Deafening power chords, reggae soaked verses and powerful sing along choruses all intensify this new EP. Since releasing their first EP, Dodger has been busy performing with dates on Warped Tour and Wakestock, followed by a tour in Eastern Canada. They have also had the opportunity to share the stage with acts such as Goldfinger, The Mad Caddies, Silverstein, Hot Water Music, Rza and Gza from The Wu-Tang Clan, Bedouin Soundclash and ill Scarlett. Along with bands such as Metric and Broken Social Scene, Dodger starred in a one hour episode of The Rawside of – a television series on the International Film Channel showcasing the less-than-glamorous, behind-the-scenes aspects of being in a band. Dodger’s song Stomp was selected to be the leadoff track on Big Rock brewery’s Untapped Compilation, with 50 000 promotional copies released to the radio and public in Western Canada. Their music has been featured on the extremely influential radio station, 102.1 the Edge. Based in Toronto, Canada, it is the third most listened-to new rock station in the world. Dodger has also played sets for 102.1’s ‘Edge Events,’ performing for crowds of 800 -1500 people. Hungry to continue the momentum, Dodger are confident that their strong EP ABombANation, combined with steady touring and their ever-increasing fan base, will take their rock-reggae-ska hybrid to the next level.
