Husky Kills at Open Mic

Husky Kills at Open Mic

by Anna Washenko, FluffPo Correspondent

Aspiring blues singer and noted canine howler, Lupo the dog performed to universal acclaim at the open mic last night at Rose’s Lounge. The Memphis bar has the reputation of being a proving ground for the next generation of blues and folk acts and frequent guests include agents and festival organizers.

Friends close to Lupo said that a strong outing at the open mic could be the big career break he needs.

The dog performed a rousing rendition of the classic “Hound Dog,” as well as an original composition titled “Husky Pup Blues,” which was generally well received.

“I’m pretty impressed by Lupo so far,” said talent scout, Miles McGee, who attended the open mic. “He’s a little too well-domesticated to be a Howlin’ Wolf, but he’s still on the right track.”
