The Dovers

1) The Dovers were an American garage rock/pop band of the mid-1960s. The Dovers are revered by certain rock critics and record collectors as being a prime example of mid-60s folk rock and pop, heavily influenced by the British Invasion and American groups such as The Byrds. 2) A popular choice of name for bands in several different styles during the '50s and '60s, the Dovers identified at least two different doo wop groups. One of these changed its name to the Willows after performing from a Harlem base as the Dovers since 1950.
