The Sheepdogs are a Canadian boogie rock band from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, consisting of Ewan Currie on vocals and guitar, Rusty Matyas on guitar, Ryan Gullen on bass, and Sam Corbett on drums/percussion. Shamus Currie tours with the group as of 2013, playing keyboards and trombone.

Musical career:
The Sheepdogs released several recordings independently prior to entering Rolling Stone's "Choose The Cover" competition. They beat 15 other different bands to get the contest win and were featured on the August 18, 2011 cover of Rolling Stone magazine, the first unsigned act to do so. During the competition, the band made appearances on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and performed at the Bonnaroo Music Festival as well The Osheaga Festival in Montreal, Quebec. The band has recently signed with Atlantic Records with a new album being produced by The Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney.
The band's Five Easy Pieces EP debuted at No. 7 on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling 3,300 copies.
On September 22, 2011, the band won the three CASBY Awards they were nominated for. They won Favourite New Artist, Favourite Indie Album, and Favourite New Album. The Sheepdogs won Rock Album of the Year at the 2011 Western Canadian Music Awards.
Their song "Who?" was featured in a scene of the second episode ("Tell-Tale Hearts") of season 12 of the hit CBS series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation which aired on September 29, 2011.
On April 1, 2012, The Sheepdogs won three Juno Awards, Rock Album of the Year, Best New Group and Single of the Year, during which the group was touring in Australia with John Fogerty and were unable to attend.
The Sheepdogs played several festivals in Summer 2012, including the Catalpa Music Festival on Randall's Island in New York City on July 28, 2012.
On September 4, 2012, The Sheepdogs released their self-titled album on Atlantic Records.
In November 2013, the single "The Way It Is" was incorporated into a television commercial aired nationally for Cadillac ATS automobiles.
Leot Hanson left the band in mid-2014, soon after he opened the Capitol Music Club, a music venue in Saskatoon.
