Three Women, the first single from Dover Lights, interlaces Dream pop with Psychedelic Folk ahead of upcoming album.

Three Women, is the first single from the Ozark Mountains based duo, Dover Lights, consisting of lyricist/composer, Daniel Brinker, and producer/arranger, Andy Moore. In three delicate minutes, the duo intwines Baroque pop and 60s Psychedelic folk with Dream pop through mystical lyrics and cascading 12-string guitar work — an invitation into the sensuality of autumn.

“The song is a portrait of three women who had a profound influence on my life: the first from a dream, the second from my travels, and the third, my wife. The video is made up of footage from a trip that she and I took to the west coast of Ireland a few years ago. We go hard on several of the songs on this album (shifting seamlessly between arena-ready New wave, Dark wave, Post art rock, and Industrial) but play it soft on others, indulging our love of 60s folk. We play it cool on Three Women.

The album is an experience. Each song was written and recorded with the full-body of work in mind. Similar to listening to a Bowie album, no two songs sound the same, but they’re all woven together through the vocals, the storytelling in the lyrics, and the tertiary colors in the guitar-work. Several songs on the album deal with spiritual desolation — an Old Testament longing to get out of the wilderness; there’s a sensation of being on fire, burning out of the confines of one’s own body. It’s not all darkness, however. There’s a beauty in it all, and there are brighter songs like Blue Fox and Three Women.” — Brinker

Dover Lights’ music takes influence from their distant mentors — notably Tears for Fears, The Jesus and Mary Chain, This Mortal Coil, Pearls Before Swine, and Nick Drake.

Three Women comes from Dover Lights’ self-titled debut album, Dover Lights, release date: January 15th, 2021.

Dover Lights will follow Three Women with the single Memory Dissolves and its music video, release date: December 3rd, 2020.

Band bio:

Dover Lights, a duo from the Ozark Mountains, create a vespertine world, equally visceral and cerebral, with their self-titled debut album. A cinematic outpouring of nocturnal musings, Dover Lights alludes to life's deepest longings, fears, and pain in an enigmatic package whose sounds can best be compared - if they can be compared to anything - to music from the vaults of 1980's/late 1970’s English cult acts, New Wave, and 1960s psychedelic folk. The album achieves a singularity with Brinker’s voice guiding the listener through Moore’s dense shape-shifting guitar work, telling tales of dreams, travels, relationships, and supernatural encounters wielding poetic instincts from the realms of Jorge Luis Borges, William Blake, and Sayat Nova. The front-loaded Side A plays out like radio hits from a dying star system while side B reads as a novel as the album dissolves into a poignant vision of the future from a distant past.


The music has been compared to Tears for Fears, The Jesus and Mary Chain, This Mortal Coil, Pearls Before Swine, and Nick Drake.
