DAVID DONDERO
David Dondero has done all kinds of work in his life. He's been a carpenter, a cook, a trucker, a bartender in Alaska, a drummer in This Bike is a Pipe Bomb, a solar panel installer, a day laborer, a record store clerk, and a gas pumping attendant in New Jersey, but at the end of the day he's a songwriter.
 
He released his 9th album Inside the Cat's Eye on January 23 via Koschke Records. You can listen to it here:

In 2006, NPR's "All Songs Considered" named him one of the 10 Best Living Songwriters.
 
He returns to Iowa City after just two short months, but with many miles, experiences, and a handful of new songs written in between.
 
TINY BONUS FEATURE:
The Overdot will open the show with #avpoetics. The Overdot will explain their origin and offer an introductory visual verse (or, perhaps, a preceeding palette purification). This is an experimental visual-image-as-sound project by John Engelbrecht.
