She writes with the poetic economy of musicians like James McMurtry and Dolly Parton, and authors like Appalachia's Ron Rash, in that she can sketch in a story in a few words.

Not many artists have the imaginations of a Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen. Or the creative lunacy of a John Prine, Randy Newman or Tom Waits. This is why many good musicians have short careers. It is not as easy to be consistent and creative as you may think. This is Americana music of the highest quality.

That's what just a couple of Donna Dean's many glowing reviewers have to say - come along Saturday evening & hear for yourself. Mark will anchor the gig as always, & the two of them will play some together. The koha teapot will be in its usual place on the counter & your contributions of appreciation for the music are greatly appreciated. Moth the cafe cat with either be settled in by the fire or sitting onstage. See you there, & please bring your friends.
