Florence Dore "Hold the Spark" on CD
Nashville-born, Chapel Hill-based Florence Dore delivers her strongest album yet with 'Hold the Spark'. Produced by Don Dixon (R.E.M.), the record pairs incisive Americana storytelling with muscular roots-rock and rich, emotional vocals. Featuring Jason Wilber (John Prine), Will Rigby (The dB’s, Steve Earle), and guest appearances from Mitch Easter (Let's Active) and Robert Sledge (Ben Folds Five), this is smart, funny, and deeply human songwriting that lingers.
“If, like me, you considered 'Highways & Rocketships' a career highlight which Dore was unlikely to equal, well, she’s achieved that and more with this gem.”
– Declan Culliton, Lonesome Highway
“Hold the Spark should appeal to anyone who wishes Tom Petty was still around to make records.”
– David Menconi, WALTER Magazine
"Florence Dore has taken...conventional or traditional forms of rock but elevated them with insight and lyricism that adds layer on layer to produce an accessible gem worthy of further investigation."
