Artist History Nashville native Florence Dore, professor of American literature with a specialization in Faulkner, has just released her debut album, Perfect City (Slewfoot Records), produced by Steve Earle guitarist Eric "Roscoe" Ambel (Bottle Rockets, Blood Oranges, etc). Originally a singer in obscure Boston garage bands in the eighties, Florence's lyrics incorporate a love of literature with the unpretentious rawness of those earlier bands. She has been compared to Lucinda Williams and Cheri Knight, but she also brings a rockier edge to her version of "alt.country."
