Back at the Village Idiot, for an early show 6 - 9pm. Come with empty bellies and open ear-holes! Last summer at the Idiot was epic!About The Devil Doves:
Much like the Grand Canyon, the Devil Doves started as a trickle in the desert.
Budding songwriter Junior Kauffman teamed up with high school baseball buddy Kyle "Headband" Davis and the duo hit the open mics. The definitive sound of Junior's raspy vocals and anti-folk acoustic songwriting solidified when Kyle switched from djembe to trejon and their signature "clusterfolk" sound was formed.
After taking home an 8-song demo CD from the band, bass player and local troubadour Eric Nassau showed up to a show with his gear ready to play, unbeknownst to the duo. The trio clicked and he continued to join them on and off for the next 18 months at their weekly gigs, earning him the nickname “Thunderstorm.”
After being selected for their local community festival, the trio had their first actual practice and then promptly and epically got rained out halfway through their set. The momentum, however, pushed them to release their self-titled first record and take their show on the road.
As fate would have it, the trio played a house party where they ran into fellow musician Jeff “Pretty Fingers” Straw. Jeff played the keys and had the voice of an angel, so after a handful of jam sessions, Kyle baked him a cake and the quartet was complete.
Now with three albums under their belt, the Devil Doves continue to delight and surprise new listeners with their energetic live antics and ever evolving music. They just released a single that has gained a lot of traction (11 monthly Spotify listeners in Brazil!) and their fourth LP is oh so close to being in the can.
