DOV moved to NYC from Tel Aviv after serving in the IDF until age 21. The son of a left-wing political activist, he migrated from Israel and its conflicted ideals as they didn’t fit the life that he wanted to lead as a queer liberal musician and artist. In this music, DOV encapsulates his experience as an LGBTQ immigrant searching for love and acceptance and eventually finding it in himself.
His unique production style has been described as “music that glistens with contrasting textures” and as “striking, deeply original work, at once pop but also deeply alien.”
