Sun 2/23/14: Dan Tedesco @ Slainte Wine Bar (Portland, ME)
Dan Tedesco is the quintessential modern-day troubadour, narrating the American experience in song honestly and intimately, and with a big sound to boot. A solo artist, Tedesco's stage show is framed by a minimalist production that finds him belting out folk-spiced rockers from behind both acoustic and electric guitars while foot-stomping percussion rounds out many of the arrangementsthis is one solo artist who won't seem out of place on a bill with rock bands. Interludes at the piano lighten the mood a little, but only a little, as the distorted Rhodes and Wurly sounds only contribute to Dan's stage presence. Overall, you can expect the twang of John Prine, the attitude of Ike Reilly, the picking of Steve Goodman, and shades of Paul Simon. Similarities aside, however, Dan Tedesco is at one extremely talented and intensely original.
On Tuesday, February 4th, Tedesco will release his new full-length, "Death In The Valley", on which he worked, once again, with Duane Lundy (Shangri-La Productions/Lexington, KY) in the Engineer/Producer chair. Focusing on themes concerning the recession, isolation, identity, control (or a lack thereof), responsibility and most importantly hope, a narrative is carved out and supported by a very organic, stripped-down production touch. Available for download exclusively at DanTedesco.com, the official track listing is:
1. Over The Rise
2. Fire In The Tumbleweed
3. Closin' For The Season
4. Red Eyes
5. The Truce
6. Miss America
7. Back Home Again
8. Rubber Left To Burn
9. Favorite Of All-Time
10. Death In The Valley
Tedesco comes to Portland, ME for an intimate performance at Slainte Wine Bar on Sun 2/23 in support of his new release.
