Doves and dirt

A while back I went Bar Robo for a show that included local trio Doves and was intrigued by their shoegazing sounds (I also wondered how long their name would last, since it also belongs to a fairly prominent British pop band). Well, they're still Doves and sounded even better this time around at Pressed, opening for Owen Sound psych monsters Psychedelic Dirt. Here's Kyle and SCott!

I didn't know what to expect from Psychedelic Dirt, but they absolutely killed it with some Bardo Pond-meets-Sunburned Hand of the Man style jams. Here's Kevin!

I suspect a lot of folks at the previous nights Radiation Flowers gig would have dug it.
