Doves overcome technical delay to preview new album

After a false start band play sold out show in London

Doves previewed tracks from their forthcoming new album at packed London gig last night (March 19).

Performing in front of a sold-out crowd at the HMV Forum, the band were forced to start their show twice.

Initially the band had taken to the stage but left without playing a note due to a technical problem.
