Doves Announce 2025 UK Tour, No Goodwin

Manchester, UK - October 26, 2023 - After a year of triumphant sold-out shows and festival appearances, British indie rock giants Doves have officially announced their return to the UK stage in 2025. The tour, titled "The 2025 UK Tour," will see the band performing in a series of intimate shows across the country, kicking off in February and wrapping up in March.

The news, confirmed by the band themselves on their social media, was met with widespread excitement from fans. Many are eager to hear the band's iconic anthems live again, especially after their 2022 album "The Universal Want" was met with critical acclaim.

However, the announcement also brought with it a bittersweet note. Guitarist and vocalist Jimi Goodwin will not be joining the band on this tour. In a statement released alongside the tour dates, the band explained that "Goodwin will be focusing on his solo career and other projects." This news comes as a surprise to many fans, who have come to associate Doves with the distinctive blend of Goodwin's guitar work and vocal style.

While Goodwin's absence will undoubtedly be felt, the remaining members of Doves – Jez Williams, Andy Williams, and Sam Brown – remain confident in their ability to deliver a powerful and memorable show. They are expected to perform a mix of fan favorites and new material, including tracks from their recent album.

The full list of tour dates and venues is as follows:

February 2025

• 18th - Manchester, O2 Ritz

Tickets for the tour go on sale on November 2nd at 10:00am GMT. Fans are encouraged to visit the band's official website for further information and to secure their tickets before they sell out.

This tour promises to be a unique and unforgettable experience for longtime fans and newcomers alike. While Goodwin's absence will be felt, the remaining members of Doves are undoubtedly ready to deliver a performance that will leave audiences buzzing for years to come.
