ULR Video of the Week Dorinda Clarke Cole "Take It Back"
Carrying on the legacy of her mother, mass choir director pioneer, the late Mattie Moss Clark, along with her award winning contemporary gospel pioneering sisters who have influenced a generation of singers, Dorinda Clark Cole boldly comes forth with her third solo album, TAKE IT BACK. Produced by Asaph Ward, and co-written by Dorinda, TAKE IT BACK is a mix of traditional and contemporary gospel music interjected with Dorinda’s trademark runs, scats and anointed preaching. The second from the youngest of The Clark Sisters, Dorinda attributes her fiery, convicting singing style to her mother, who saw the gift of singing and preaching in her at an early age. Back in the 1960’s and 70’s when other children their age were playing outside, Dorinda and her sisters would have to work on their now famous familial harmonies. She says, “We made a lot of sacrifices. My mom was a stickler for making sure we rehearsed before we went out to perform. If we had an engagement on a Saturday or Sunday, during the week she would call us in and say, ‘Hey ya’ll I need you to come in here and rehearse.’ That’s when mom started really putting the discipline in us. She would say, ‘Karen, I want you to take that microphone and sing this note…and now Dorinda, I want you to talk a little bit.’ When Karen the youngest turned five we started recording. She saw the gifts and talents within us and started shaping and molding us. She taught us discipline along with how to use our gifts. We still have those gifts today. It was all in preparation for what we do today as recording artists, writers and producers.” The gift of talking that Dorinda’s mother saw in her as a little girl has evolved into a phenomenal preaching ministry that goes hand in hand with her singing ministry. “I can’t get around the both of them; I can’t leave the stage without saying something…and even when I preach, I can’t leave without singing a line of something,” she laughs. Dorinda has been evangelizing and juggling hundreds of speaking engagements annually for over twenty years, along with her singing career and being a wife and mother. And to add to that, she is the new host of TCT Network’s Celebrate Music, co-host of TCT’s Celebrate on the Road , and is the current spokes model for Donna Vinci Clothing. |
