Hotdog was a Filipino band formed by brothers Dennis and Rene Garcia that achieved fame in the Philippines during the mid-1970s.[1][2] Their first album, Unang Kagat,[3] was released in 1974[2] by Villar Records.[4] The album led to the 1975 movie of the same name, also starring the band.[1] The band was credited by local journalists as a major influence on and leading exponent of the Manila Sound, a musical genre popular during that period.[5][6]
Hotdog officially dissolved upon the death of its co-founder and bass guitarist, Dennis Garcia, in January 2020.
