More information: Having grown up with a musician, David Jackson of Van Der Graff Generator, it was no surprise that Dorie decided to follow in her fathers footsteps and try a career in music. Stupid Says Run is her second solo album.

Dorie started her professional singing career as a backing vocalist for Francis Dunnery (It Bites). They soon formed a firm friendship and began writing together. In the interim, Francis introduced Dorie to many great musicians and writers, one of which was Chris Difford. Francis was producing Chris' first solo record and he brought Dorie in to do backing vocals.

Chris and Dorie still continue to tour and Dorie has since recorded two subsequent albums. She has also toured and recorded with other great artists including Marti Pellow.

Dorie is also well known for her involvement as singer in the Folk/Prog/Rock band Kaprekar's Constant and with three albums behind them Stupid Says Run is born out of the House Of Kaprekar with fellow members joining in on the album.

It was especially important to Dorie that her father, David, (Jackson) added his unique touch to the music. One of the most important figures of 1970’s progressive rock, David weaves flute, horns and whistles throughout the album.
