Inspiration is seldom elusive and motivation rarely fades for DOVES as the boundary-clearing alchemists of yearning, scenic alternative sound return with their critically-acclaimed sixth studio album âConstellations for the Lonely', 25 years after they arrived with their Mercury Award-nominated debut.
Following 2020âs UK Number 1 album âThe Universal Wantâ, the band quietly continued working, despite stepping away from public view in late 2021 due to frontman Jimi Goodwinâs well-publicized health concerns. Instead of an ending, it became a transition, as they embraced remote recording while maintaining their signature collaborative approach. Inspired by dystopian imagery and personal struggles, the new album âConstellations for the Lonely' blends intricate guitar work, cinematic influences, and soul-infused experimentation. Tracks like âCold Dreamingâ and âLast Years Manâ explore resilience, forgiveness, and fatherhood, while âStupid Schemesâ adds a playful, soulful twist. Despite challenges, Dovesâ cehmisty remains, proving they are still reaching new artist heights.
Main support on the day comes from the legendary UK folk-rock outfit TURIN BRAKES who return to Bexhill to perform a full electric set.
A further full supporting bill is still to come.
Gates open at 2pm.
Summer Nights by the Sea is a FORM presentation.
