Drake White is officially ready to make his mark with his Dot Records debut, SPARK, set for release on Friday, Aug. 19.

“Since we began this journey – working on the album – I knew I wanted the title to be SPARK,” said White. “The idea of starting a big fire from a tiny spark has always been so intriguing to me. That’s the way I live my life; starting with a small plan and then it becomes this dream I didn’t know how to dream.”
