DOE

Genre: 
Pop

Born in Washington State and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana, DOE started singing as a child with her family. Growing up in the church, it was inevitable that she would follow her family's path and sing Christian/Gospel music, as both sides of her family were heavily involved in the Gospel circuit. "My parents had five children, so we eventually became a group, and we actually did very well." That group was called Forever Jones, a Christian gospel septet, featuring her parents, a 16-year-old DOE, and her two sisters and two brothers, which released two albums on EMI Gospel, Get Ready in 2010 and Musical Revival in 2012, followed by their self-released Prayer Tools, Vol. 1 in 2014. The group enjoyed much success, garnering multiple Stellar Award and Dove Award nominations and two GRAMMY® Awards nominations for Best Contemporary R&B Gospel Album and Best Gospel Performance.

In 2014, DOE took the leap of faith to explore a solo career. "I started experimenting with that and really just honestly doing what was in my heart – doing prayer music and using prayer tools to help people pray." DOE received offers for record deals but felt none of them were suitable for her, so she continued to do ministry work as a youth pastor in Dallas and worked behind the scenes on her sound and message. This dedication led to DOE being featured on Jonathan McReynolds' single "Cycles" from his 2018 album Make Room. She eventually released two singles, "Deepest Part of You" and "Reach."

DOE's first album, a self-titled EP, is available now and features the hit single "Brighter."

She wrote all of the tracks on the EP with the help of her brothers Judah and Dewitt Jones, Jonathan McReynolds, and Dee Wilson. The EP, which features award-winning producer Daryl Howell, is a rich, neo-soul, eclectic soundtrack of her life that she is eager to share. "It's a very vulnerable album for me. It is me talking about my life and what God has shown me, without being super 'religious,'" DOE admits. "I feel this is where I am supposed to be. I'm going to take this journey hand-in-hand with everyone, and it's going to be a learning experience. I'm excited about that."
