Doveman is a New York City-based quintet that creates delicately wrought songs. They're also a free-wheeling powerhouse band, and paradoxically they can manage to be both in the course of a single song. The songs are by pianist and singer Thomas Bartlett, whose wide-ranging musical interests are also reflected in his Audiofile column for Salon.com. Thomas and his band join host David Garland to talk about their music and to perform in the WNYC studio. They categorize their music as "lamp rock" and "insomnia pop," which just means you have to hear it for yourself to know what it's like.
