Doves have confirmed the tracklist for their eagerly awaited ‘Best of…’ album, out later this year.
‘So, Here We Are: Best Of Doves’ will be released via EMI North on Friday 14th November 2025.
It features an unreleased track alongside 18 hit singles, album highlights and B-sides.
The unearthed track was recorded in 2006 as part of the Kingdom Of Rust sessions.
Alongside the announcement, the Manchester band have added two additional live dates to their December 2025 UK Tour.
For the first time since 2007, Doves will return to Manchester’s O2 Apollo, along with a performance at Sheffield’s Octagon.
Co-founder and singer, Jimi Goodwin commented: “So, here we are… a ‘best of’ can be a difficult thing to pull off but it was surprisingly easy once we got thinking.
“It’s by no means complete but, then how could it be? It’s been revelatory and somehow cathartic, revising what we’ve achieved together. I mean, wow! Did we really write this stuff?”
