ShareFollowing intimate dates in Stoke, Birkenhead and Hebden Bridge, Doves, fronted by Andy and Jez Williams, will play fifteen UK-wide dates in 2025
While Jimi Goodwin sits out live appearances, fans are assured of hearing Doves’ greatest hits in their first shows since 2019. They will return to the road for a full UK Tour following the release of their upcoming, sixth studio album, Constellations For The Lonely in February. The Manchester band will return to their home city to perform for the first time in fifteen years, announcing a night at the modernist Aviva Studios in addition to their return to London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire.
The band will be fronted by Andy and Jez Williams without Jimi Goodwin. The band cancelled their 2021 touring plans to protect Goodwin’s health and wellbeing and the singer remains committed to his recovery as a priority. Announcing their initial live dates the band stated that “Jimi’s health came first”, while Goodwin added his current circumstances were “not compatible with a mad, city-to-city schedule.”
