Belly will return with the release of their first full length album in 23 years. The album ‘Dove’ was produced and recorded by band member Tom Gorman (Guitar), alongside longtime friend of the group Paul Q. Kolderie. ‘Dove’ is now available for pre-order and includes instant downloads of “Shiny One” and new track “Stars Align.” It’s classic slacker indie rock, with a chorus up there with anything they’ve produced, Tanya Donnelly’s vocal something that you feel can swallow you up such is its intoxicating power.
Belly will launch their first major tour since 1995 later this year and will play Boston Calling on May 26th. “We’re all looking forward to presenting these songs in a live setting, and having the opportunity to play together again,” says Chris Gorman (Drums). “We should be in for a really exciting year.”
If you can’t wait till May, then on Record Store Day, Belly will release a limited edition 10″ colored vinyl EP featuring two tracks from DOVE, one track exclusive to this release, and a cover of “Hushabye Mountain” from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
