DOG WITH A SPOON is the sound of pure pop punk joy: Fast, fun, and impossible to get out of your head. This three-piece from the Netherlands serves up a whirlwind of punchy riffs, infectious hooks, and lyrics that are as witty as they are original.
While most pop punk bands stick to heartbreak and angst, DOG WITH A SPOON takes a different route. Their songs dive into the wonderfully absurd – from stamp collectors and living with otters to the agony of pointless small talk. It’s tongue-in-cheek humor with a clever twist, wrapped in choruses you’ll be singing long after the show ends.
On stage, frontman René Katerbarg proves to be a born entertainer, backed by brothers Daan (bass) and Sven Jansen (drums). Their chemistry and sharp banter turn every gig into an unforgettable party; full of laughs, high energy, and a crowd that can’t help but sing along. Audiences leave smiling ear to ear, usually with a new favorite band.
With nods to blink-182, Green Day, Sum 41, and The Aquabats, DOG WITH A SPOON feels instantly familiar to pop punk fans, yet refreshingly unique in their playful approach. Add their quirky canine mascot Doug into the mix, and you’ve got a band that’s as memorable offstage as they are on it.
Whether you’re a die-hard pop punk fan or a newcomer, DOG WITH A SPOON’s sharp wit and relentless energy make them impossible to ignore. One thing’s for sure: you’re going to want in on this ride.

Reviews
“Live With The Otters” is a perfect “escape from reality anthem” [..] ridiculously catchy and energized. It takes nods from bands like Blink 182 and Sum 41, but also has that playful energy that comes from a Bowling For Soup or Koo Koo song. Whether you’re struggling to get into the grind of the week or just need something to smile about, I highly suggest checking out “Live With The Otters” from DOG WITH A SPOON.
