David Dondero is a songwriter’s songwriter who’s flown under the radar for years, even though he often logs 200 shows a year, touring with the likes of Pedro the Lion and Against! Me. He has a terrific ear and eye for simple detail, for spinning songs out of the mundane just as deftly as standards like love and loss.
