"From the prairie city of Saskatoon, Canada come the Sheepdogs, 4 young gentlemen who revel in the joy of rock n roll so wholeheartedly, it's downright contagious. Sporting the long-haired looks of their musical forefathers, the lads make the most of their 2 guitars, bass and drums combo. Soulful vocalizations, everybody harmonizing, old-school guitar chops winding, riffing and chiming, and a grooving rhythm section that keeps it all going. Having already cemented their reputation as dynamic performers in their hometown, the Sheepdogs now turn their attention to spreading their affection for rock n roll cross-country. They have spent the last year covering the great white north, playing from Vancouver island to Montreal. They have played festivals, headlined a bill during 2007's Junofest, opened for the likes of Matt Mays and el Torpedo, and performed before thousands at 2006's Saskatoon Centennial Celebration. In January 2007 they released their debut LP Trying to Grow, a collection of guitar-driven originals that recall classic rockers like the Stones, CCR, and the Kinks. The album's title-track was featured in a province-wide campaign in their native Saskatchewan. Early 2008 has already seen the completion of their follow-up album, which mixes elements of southern rock and moody soul with gleeful straight-forward rockers. Once again, the boys are hitting the road, spreading their rock n roll revival to the rest of Canada."

Warmer Love
The Sheepdogs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's hard to tell what I'm thinking of
Down the street, takes me to you
There we'll meet, you know it's true
Warmer love, warmer love
It's only love, it's up to you
Take a ride, us here inside (?)
Then you'll see the love there's alright
Warmer love, warmer love
Warmer love, warmer love
Warmer love, warmer love
Warmer love, ahhh yeah, it's only love
The Sheepdogs' "Warmer Love" has a simple message - it's about the warmth of love that transcends all boundaries and the singer desires to share said warmth with his loved one. The phrase "it's up to you" represents the mutual understanding and decision between two people to fall in love as well as the potential that each individual has to make love flourish. Love is not always black and white, and it's not always easy to discern what thoughts are running through a person's head. The line "It's hard to tell what I'm thinking of" displays that idea.
The first stanza implies that the singer is going to meet someone they love, and they're going to have a good time. The phrase "there we'll meet, you know it's true" indicates that this meeting is a long-awaited one and that both parties share the sentiment. The second stanza is more descriptive - it suggests that the singer's love interest is uncertain about reciprocating their love. However, the singer is ready to take a chance and do whatever it takes to make them fall in love.
