The Dø are hailed as one of the hottest new indie bands to emerge from France in years. Their single "On My Shoulder" is a smash hit overseas and has been topping the French pop charts for weeks. The song is taken from their debut album "A Mouthful" that has received raving reviews after its release earlier this year.
Named after the first (and last) note on the music scale, The Dø is the quirky French-Finnish duo of Olivia B.Merilahti (vocals) and Dan Levy (guitar, synths). In their biography, the two explain that they are on a clear mission to crank out a sound that fills the void in popular music. "[Our music] spans the space between the rock and the roll,
with wholesomeness & simplicity that excite like electricity," the band says.
Dominated by Olivia's idiosyncratic vocals, their music has an off the wall quality that is very refreshing. Listen to the group's European hit single "On My Shoulder" below. Also, check out the single's very good video. The song might be a bit crunchy at first, but is one of those tunes that if you
chew for a bit, you'll discover that it is sweet on the inside. Just the stuff I
like.
Brilliant song- as "On My Shoulders" opens I get strong echoes of PJ erm Proby ?? No: PJ Harvey,which is no bad thing. "Stay Just a little bit More" is just as quirkily appetising
