Culled from a forthcoming debut full length platter, Nugent and Belle formerly the Alice Band have been graciously cited in the same breath as Alison Krauss, KT Tunstall and Joni Mitchell by their press people which might prove just now a heavy burden to carry at such an early stage in their nurturing, safe to say that there’s more than enough of a sweetly engaging pop prowess attaching to ’doves’ as it shuffles, stumbles and quicksteps to a porch lit procession of honeyed harmonies and homely lilts as to suggest it radiates like a softly smouldering Bangles. The kind of thing that once upon a time the eminent spit n polish / shoeshine stable would have pounced on. http://www.soundcloud.com/nugentandbelle/doves
