Local pop band Dog Person released its debut full-length album, Late Bloomer, on Mar. 11 and is celebrating that album being put to cassette tapes with a show presented by Attaboy Tapes. Dog Person is a supergroup containing members of several popular Athens bands, including Nana Grizol and Go Public. The group’s songs combine twee and angst with influence from artists like The Breeders, Harry Nilsson and Camera Obscura, often with lyrics about terrible exes. In addition to launching the sale of its new tapes, the band will also have new limited edition merch available for purchase at the show. Bubblegum pop band Isra & the Paisleys will open, and a dance party will follow the show.
