Oxfordshire
Dolly Mavies is an Alternative Post Folk artist from the Dreaming Spires of Oxfordshire
Blending folk’s heartfelt storytelling with rock’s driving rhythms, atmospheric soundscapes and haunting, punchy vocals.
Dolly creates a unique sonic tapestry that channels the energy of Fleetwood Mac, the ethereal intensity of Florence and the Machine, and the emotional depth of Daughter.
Their music is where Janis Joplin’s raw power meets Joni Mitchell’s lyrical grace, infused with the mysticism of 70s icons. Dolly Mavies is a master of merging folk’s roots with punk’s rebellious spirit and country’s laid-back groove, delivering songs that are as layered and textured as they are profound.
