The DOVES are an acoustic/electric duo that expresses duality: male and female; light and dark; innocence and experience; joy and melancholy; sacred and profane.
Husband and wife team W. Wade and Trena Stooksberry bring their varied musical experiences and eclectic tastes together in a performance that is both original, yet affectingly familiar. Trena is classically trained; Wade cut his teeth in rowdy bars and clubs. Together, under various names and different combinations -- and with Trena playing bass to Wade’s guitar -- they played in bands during the nascent New Wave and Alternative scene.
Now, as The DOVES, they have crafted an original sound that is composed of welded harmonies; Trena’s accomplished ethereal/bluesy/folk vocals matched to Wade’s smoldering melodies; and Wade’s rhythmic thrum on guitar that blends Celtic, rock, and pop influences.
