Modern Dog (Thai: โมเดิร์นด็อก) is a Thai rock band, formed in 1992. They were an influential band of the Thai rock scene, having issued their first album in 1994.[1]

The band's 2004 album, That Song, was produced by Tony Doogan (Belle & Sebastian, Mogwai), with the title track arranged by bassist Yuka Honda of Cibo Matto. The album also featured guest appearances by Yumiko Ohno of Buffalo Daughter and Sean Lennon. It featured three singles that went to No 1 in Thailand.[2]

Extending their reach beyond Thailand, Modern Dog played in Tokyo in 2003.[3] In July–August 2006 the band toured the United States, including a show at the Knitting Factory in New York City.
