"Stardog’s ‘Black Mountain Rain’ combines the power, grandiosity and shredding of classic ’80s metal with modern musical sensibilities.” – Katherine Turman, co-author of Louder Than Hell and producer of Alice Cooper’s “Nights with Alice Cooper” radio show.
​
“The band sounds great and the tunes are tightly performed and arranged. I love the bass intro tone on Suicide Slide. Looking forward to seeing you in Atlanta.” – Rudy Sarzo (Ozzy, Quiet Riot, Whitesnake, Queensryche)
​
“Star Dog Rules This is some SIRIUS Rock n Roll. Their single Black Mountain Rain shows the Apparent Musical Magnitude of this Alpha Canis Majoris or #1 Great Dog. I expect each new song will be like a Rock n Roll Solstice, Burning with the Intensity of a Massive Solar Flare, only to hopefully culminate into an album that will go Supernova & Rip a Wormhole in the Space & Time Fabric of the Universe, Absorbing any Soul that has an ear for Rock n Roll. Star Dog has Marked it’s Territory. So give that Dog A Bone.” – Mark Kiger

CURRENT HAPPENINGS
STARDOG has enjoyed a rise in the secondary market FM radio charts, FMQB, after debuting at #156 with their single “Fly Away”. Bill Jerome Promotions handled the promo for this and the EP “Black Mountain Rain” across the USA’s FM radio markets. Three weeks into the campaign, “Fly Away” had risen to #91 on the chart. Last report had the single in the Top 40! Looking forward to more progress as we are in rotation on 140+ stations across the country and being added to more on a weekly basis. This campaign follows a wildly successful internet radio campaign that has seen the band get heavy rotation internet radio play all over the world for the last 18 months. Tapping into the Billboard major city markets is the next step.
