The story of Dom's music: A little bit of vagabond A guy who once lived in four states during a span of two years, Dom somehow landed in southern New Jersey, where they can't seem to get rid of him. Not surprisingly, his shows are filled with songs and stories that speak to the little bit of vagabond in all of us ... ... moving on & looking around ... why it's good to get lost & why it's good to find ... what we leave & what won't leave us Those themes are steeped in the Folk tradition of characters and settings, producing a brew that tastes like Folk and Rock with the Blues passing through. Dom's recorded music stays true to the same elements. Both the award-winning full-length album, Along the Way (2006), and the poignant EP, Remember Me: New, Original Folk Music for the American Soldier (2007), deliver a tangible sense of place, movement and personality. The sound is simple, organic and acoustic in nature. But what the music lacks in window dressing, it more than makes up for in lyrical depth and rhythmic hooks. Dom's songs have been broadcast by commercial, college and public radio, sometimes alongside the tunes of major-label artists. His story has been told in publications both large (Philadelphia Inquirer) and local. He has performed on television and radio programs, at major music festivals, and in every venue from art galleries to loud bars, from intimate cafes to mid-sized regional clubs. So whether you're listening live in a friendly venue or from the speakers of your favorite stereo, get into the music and get to know Dom! |
