Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson have announced a concert called 'Music for Dogs' that will feature sounds designed for canine ears.

According to The Guardian, the show will be part of next month's Vivid Live festival in Australia. Reed and Anderson are headlining and curating the event.

The artists have apparently been making music for their rat terrier Lollabelle for ten years.

"She likes things with a lot of smoothness but with beats in them," Anderson said.

She added: "Things with voices and lots of complicated high-end stuff. Chk-chk-chk-chk-chk – that kind of stuff."

"Dogs will be able to hear the high-frequency music, but people will only hear the lapping of the water on the harbour," according to the event programme.

Organisers have asked concert-goers to keep their dogs on leads for the event.

Reed wrapped his 'Metal Machine Music' tour in April.
