In 2024, Dove Bomb emerged with a name that symbolizes their sound: equal parts grace and impact, beauty and destruction. Based in Tampa Bay’s legendary rock and metal scene, they’ve built a reputation for delivering shows that are as emotionally gripping as they are sonically heavy. Their music blends the crushing power of metal riffs with haunting, heartfelt energy—creating a balance that feels both timeless and fresh.

Tampa Bay’s music community, with its deep roots in rock and metal, has been instrumental in shaping their identity. Dove Bomb has already seen milestones such as features on 102.5 The Bone and ABC’s Channel 10, as well as a viral online presence that has brought their music to millions. Their 1st Place win at the 2025 Cordero Music Battle of the Bands stands as a testament to the connection they’ve built with fans and peers alike.

Behind the accolades, though, Dove Bomb’s process remains grounded: late-night rehearsals, collaborative songwriting, and the relentless pursuit of crafting songs that carry weight both musically and emotionally. For them, every show is a shared experience with the audience —the final, most essential piece of the band. With new music and performances ahead, Dove Bomb continues their mission to create rock that doesn’t just shake the ground, but stirs the soul.
