Georgio \'the Dove\' ValentinoGeorgio 'The Dove' Valentino and bandmates came to the WDET studios in January to perform live on Detroit Today. His sound has a dreamy, psychedelic quality while still firmly rooted in pop melody. His new album, You Brought a Knife to a Gunfight, can be found here .
Straight from his website bio -
Georgio's gilded croon, decadent archtop guitar style, and atmospheric sensibility-- circumscribe a niche at the intersection of histrionic torch song, ambient soundtrack, sleazy listening, and new wave. The Dove is backed on stage by the Monstrous Leviathans, who count among their ranks such colourful personalities as Dan Augustine (formerly of the W-Vibe), Scott Harrison (of Battling Siki), and Ben Luckett.”
