Award Nomination for “Western & Atlantic”, NYC show Mar 28

U p c o m i n g    D o n   D i L e g o   -   N Y C   S h o w :
Thurs  |  Mar 28th  |  The Living Room  |  9pm  |  FB Event
Hey Folks - 
It’s been a little while, but I’m dusting off the Martin and doing an intimate acoustic show at the legendary Living Room before their doors close…hopefully to be re-opened again somewhere soon. I must confess, being a Lower East Village resident, that I LOVE their current location! Oh well, all things must pass. And things have been changing around these parts so fast these days!
I had a wonderful time at the 30A Songwriters Festival in Florida back in Jan, and it recharged my songwriting. Looking forward to getting back into the studio on my own soon. I have been busy producing a few albums on both coasts this spring, and will give some updates on those records very soon. In the meantime, I just found out that I was nominated for an 
Independent Music Award for best Roots/Country EP for “Western & Atlantic”. Don’t know how much I actually fit into either of those categories, but it is definitely a great honor to have the record acknowledged! 
THAT being said, it appears they like to hear from the general public for voting purposes. So, if you can spare a few seconds in the next day or two, could you pop over and tick my name? (assuming your more talented friends aren’t nominated in the same category as well!) Might be cool to actually win this thing…
Vote for Don
In other news, went to my first yoga class today, so I’m now going to crawl into a fetal position and shun the acknowledgement of muscles and joints I was never made aware of until today.
 
 
See you soon - DD

New gig for the twilight of The Living Room in NYC

There may be only a few days left for the legendary Living Room, at least until they find a new space somewhere somehow. In the meantime, I’m dragging out my rapidly winter-cracking and now Willie Nelson-like acoustic, and leading a solo charge through my favorite Don DiLego songs…in case you’ve ever heard of him.

I’m going.
