Doves will celebrate three decades of music this winter with the release of a brand-new compilation album, ‘So, Here We Are: Best Of Doves’, due out on 14 November 2025 via EMI North

The full-length will feature a collection of songs hand-selected by the band from their six studio albums and more – including a previously unreleased track.

The first such compilation to be pressed to vinyl, the release traces their 27-year journey from the debut ‘Cedar’ EP in November 1998 through to the present. The full tracklist will be revealed in the coming months.

The Jez and Andy Williams-fronted Doves powered through a sold-out run of 16 shows earlier this year in support of their latest album, ‘Constellations For The Lonely’. Following a stint of summer festival appearances, the band will return to the road once more this winter – full details below:
