ALSO AVAILABLE FROM ITUNES
South of the South is a perversely American record full of sentimentality, contempt,
humor, and lust—a pissed off yet hopeful statement from a man who knows that the
life of a working musician is as rewarding as it is hard. Few songwriters have experienced
and expressed the sinking depths and uplifting optimism of humanity like David
Dondero and his ability to shine a light on the human condition (his own included) is
inspiring. Restless, prolific, and perpetually on the road, Dondero makes a quick stop
on his endless trek to drop off his sixth solo record, South of the South (out in the fall
of 2005 on Team Love Records). It's "not a typical life," Dondero sings on "You
Shouldn't Leave a Lover Alone Too Long," and that only begins to scratch the surface.
Considering everywhere Dondero has traveled, it's not surprising that geography permeates
his songs. From Miami, Florida to Ely, Nevada, Dondero connects the highway
lines into a collection of literate, impressionistic, folk-blues mini-epics. Conjuring the
spirit of Henry Miller coming to terms with his homeland in The Air-Conditioned
Nightmare, Dondero is like the ex-patriot returned--passionately and sublimely relaying
how beautiful and ugly this huge-ass country can be.
