Lyrics from On My Shoulders

The name (pronounced 'dough') comes from the first note of the solfège scale (the note was also paid tribute in the movie The Sound Of Music). The Dø also refers to the musical duo of Olivia Merilahti and Dan Levy who first met in 2005 when they were called on to record the music for the French film Empire of Wolves. The two began a musical collaboration, releasing The Bridge Is Broken EP three months after meeting. Their debut A Mouthful was released by the label Cinq 7 in 2008. The band’s latest effort, Both Ways Open Jaws, came out in 2011 and showcases a range of eclectic influences from Hungarian composer Bela Bartok to sounds of the American Applachia.
