To celebrate the release of the new album album The Universal Want, it''s a first time in Kingston from Doves

It's their first studio album in eleven years and it's going to be quite the opportunity to hear a career spanning set in an intimate venue. 

Only the second track and first single proper to be revealed, Prisoners forces attention upon itself, not least with the poignancy of Goodwin’s repeated greeting to ‘old friends’, but as an unstoppable, driving tale of caution in a world of unending desire. Produced by Doves with Dan Austin and recorded at the band’s own Frank Bough Sound III studios in North West England, the high heat of its Northern Soul beat is fanned by wiry guitar breaks and cuts of ethereal noise contorting beneath layers of stacked vocals. A statuesque musical statement, Prisoners guides Doves’ second chapter to a peak now within touching distance, the lyrics contrasting to express unease with modern ills.

Times TBC but we expect doors at 9:00pm with Doves on stage at 10:00pm

New Slang is an over 18s event, and is strict on ID. Please bring photo ID with you on the night, whatever age you are.

New Slang is held at Pryzm, 154 Clarence St, Kingston upon Thames KT1 1QP
