Wraps Successful “Flight
to Light the Spark” Trip
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (August 29, 2016)
Making his debut on the Top Country Albums chart, Drake White has much to celebrate with the release of his new album SPARK (Dot Records). "...insanely talented and always impresses…" (Sounds Like Nashville), Drake’s 12-track labor of love came from years of hard work and dedication to perfecting his sound. It is available now at digital retailers.
“Thanks to all of my fans who have supported this release,” said Drake. “To be in the Top 5 with Dolly Parton, Chris Stapleton and Justin Moore, it is surreal.”

Drake shared
his passion for music last week with fans while he traveled
coast to coast as part of his “Flight to Light the Spark” initiative.
Beginning in New York City with a performance at the Housing Works Live From Home: Songwriters' Night as well as a national television performance on ABC’s Good Morning America, the whirlwind trip ended in Joshua Tree, Calif. where he celebrated 100 Years of US National Parks Service with the Opry National Parks Circle Throwdown performance of his Top 25 hit “Livin’ the Dream.” In between, he hosted the “Flight to Light the Spark,” a 17-hour trip which stopped in each time zone across the U.S. to highlight this charitable initiative.
