With 50 years of song-making behind him, and 6 & 12-string guitars and 5-string banjo in hand, Don has hit the road once again, singing of the Southwest and Old Mexico, tunes from the '20's & '30's and his beautiful original songs that have been hailed worldwide. His song "White Mountains Good Bye" was recorded by Bill Staines, while "Santuario" has been recorded by Woods Tea Company, and "Day After The Day Of The Dead" was covered by cowboy singer Jim Jones.
"Impeccable flat picking and banjo work...the Armstrong take on Western & non-Western imagery is unique and loved by the adventurously broadminded." -Rope Burns
"Don gets it right. His songs have a sense of positiveness and romanticism which leaves one feeling good. Uplifting. That's what music is for." -Erik Darling (The Weavers)
Joining Don for a one-time musical reunion will be long time friend and one time musical partner Tom Mitchell. Don & Tom delighted audiences across the country, playing all the major folk clubs and being touted for their exciting vocal blend, top notch songwriting and marvelous sense of humor. They made music and shared the stage with such greats as Kate & Anna McGarrigle, John Herald & the Greenbriar Boys, Laura Nyro, John Hartford and former Monkee Michael Nesmith. Last fall Don & Tom reunited for a brief musical performance that brought the house down. Tonight at Caffe Lena they will sing some of their classics as well as many new tunes.
