Doves
Doves are an English indie rock band formed in 1998, from Wilmslow, Cheshire. The band is composed of singer and bassist Jimi Goodwin and twin brothers, guitarist Jez and drummer Andy Williams.
The band released six studio albums between 2000 and 2025, three of which reached #1 on the UK album charts. The band also achieved two top-ten singles in the UK: "There Goes the Fear" (No. 3 in 2002) and "Black and White Town" (No. 6 in 2005).
The trio was previously Sub Sub, a dance act with a 1993 hit. As Doves, they released their debut album Lost Souls in 2000, which was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Further success followed with their sophomore album The Last Broadcast, which was their first UK number-one record.
Doves entered a hiatus in 2010 after four albums as Goodwin began a solo career while the Williams brothers regrouped as Black Rivers. The band reformed in 2018, performing shows in 2019 and releasing a new album, The Universal Want, in 2020.
