Doe: A Night Of Clarity
From the venue:
ABOUT THE SHOW
All it takes is one listen to know there’s something uniquely special about DOE. Between the purity of her vocals, intuitive lyrics and soul-captivating sound, the singer-songwriter-musician — born Dominique Jones — is poised to usher in a new era of gospel/inspirational music that transcends traditional perceptions.
Music fans first heard DOE’s multifaceted talent in October 2020 with the release of her debut single “Brighter.†The ebullient hit track was the lead-off to her self-titled EP, released through gospel star Jonathan McReynolds’ Life Room Label in partnership with RCA Inspiration. DOE then welcomed everyone into her fearless world with Clarity, her debut full-length released February 18th, 2022, which comprises 11 tracks including “Clarity†and “When I Pray.â€s
DOE says, “In listening to that song, I came to the understanding that it sums up the message of the entire album. Clarity is the point where I am in my life. I feel like I’m coming to a beautiful understanding of who I am and what my role is as a child of God.†As she sings on the mid-tempo track, “I feel a freedom in this melody … strip it down, take it off, let them see you wear your crown … be you, be you.â€
The empowering honesty imparted in “Clarity†is the unapologetic through line DOE weaves within each song as she shares her own relatable joys and vulnerabilities while claiming hope and perseverance in a world still being rocked by the pandemic, racial unrest and other social issues. The other through line tying everything together: DOE’s ethereal vocals, which float and soar as they carry the listener along on a resonating journey.
Raised in a family of musicians, singers and songwriters, DOE “grew up listening and absorbing everybody that I could … even random people that I’ve found on YouTube. My voice, sound and writing are a combination of all those influences.â€
