Songwriters Guild Live with Michael Dean Damron

Songwriters Guild Live

Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly radioshow in Amsterdam, focussed on artists who write their own songs. This week your host was Ro Halfhide. Let’s start with a name-drop: over the past 20 years, Michael Dean Damron has played and toured with some of the greatest American songwriters in history: Alejandro Escovedo, Lucero, Rocky Votolato, Chad Price, Mike Watt, Eddie Spaghetti, Reverend Horton Heat, Drive by Truckers, David Allen Coe, Jerry Joseph, Slim Cessna's Auto Club, Neko Case... Damron is tired, hopeful, and excited to play for new folks in a different part of the world. Oh, and he HATES to fly. Just another fear to overcome. On his upcoming tour of Belgium and Netherlands, Damron will be backed by the best there is, bassist Allen Hunter of Eels fame and guitarist/producer Dan Eccles of Richmond Fontaine and Fernando. A subtly powerful trio to make you shout, cry, and remember what it means to be alive.
