"Doralee (Live)" is streaming now 🎧 This is the last single to be released ahead of The Third Mind's new live album, 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘥, out on Friday!

Of the song, Jesse Skyes states: "'Doralee' was the first song I wrote for my band Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter. There had been a huge flood in Skagit Valley, Washington, and I knew Doralee —who lived on the flood plains. She was a tough country woman — seemingly unfazed by the potential destruction of the coming waters. She seemed to understand how transitory everything is and had a knowingness that it was all part of a larger grand plan...She left a deep impression on me and I’m glad she lives on forever, inside this song."
