Alright, kids. Gather round and sing this with me
now ...
Dø - a band, a real good band.
Re - a guy not in it at all.
Mi - a guy that likes the Dø.
Fa - I’ve still got a long, long way to go.
So, considering the above, I’m going to stop myself
while I still can. The Dø (pronounced as in a deer,
a female deer) is made up of Dan Levi and Olivia
Merilahti. Naming themselves after the first and
last note of that ever so recognizable standard
musical scale, this duo hopes to cover every musical
base from do to do while knocking re, mi, fa, so,
la, and ti down on their way. It is in this that
you’ll find the Dø’s singularity - an attraction to
numerous genres all minimized down to play a piece
in their music. Covering such a wide range of styles
from rock, pop, folk and even hip-hop, they’re truly
a colliding intersection of genres, and with the
unlikely blending of so many styles, eclectic might
not be a strong enough word for them. This, I know,
is likely to be true though - you’re bound to like
something in their bit of everything.
Their sophomore release, Both Ways Open Jaws,
is out now.
