Mancunian indie-rock band Doves’debut album Lost Souls was released in 2000 and was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize. Their second album The Last Broadcast was released two years later, reaching number 1 in the UK album chart, again nominated for the Mercury Music Prize. This album contained the single "There Goes the Fear," which reached number 3 in the UK singles chart. 

Such is the distinctive sound Doves have crafted as a unique signature from day one, that their new offering, Kingdom of Rust (slated for release in April) flies off at new tangents but is always recognisable due to a trademark passionate intensity that few can even approach.
