Dave Martin at Raue Center Café

Description

Dave Martin at Raue Center Café AUGUST 29 @ 5-7p FREE ADMISSION! Solo Acoustic Performance. Heartland balladeer Dave Martin describes his work as “95% autobiographical”, a statement attested to by his narratives about carefree exploits, comical two-bit criminals, and quieter reflections that appraise his place among his midwestern surroundings. A University of Iowa Journalism graduate who is etching a songwriting sensibility that lies at the wry musical crossroads somewhere near where Jimmy Buffett and Greg Brown meet, Martin puts his journalistic skills to good use to tell stories that alternately poke fun at and thoughtfully regard the human condition; a soft, warm touch consistently ensured. Dedicated to realizing its mission of arts for all, Raue Center is proud to host local talent free of charge to our community. Artists are welcome to hone their skills in a warm, cozy atmosphere while patrons are free to indulge in a selection of beverages from our café bar. The schedule is subject to change, so please visit rauecenter.org for the most up-to-date calendar of events. If you are interested in performing in our café space please email program manager, Kayti Sault at ksault@rauecenter.org. Café programming is sponsored by Casio and Piano Trends.
