Dave Martin at Raue Center Café DEC 6 @ 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. Raue Center hosts some of the best local talents around in its cafe space on Wednesdays & Thursdays from 5-7p. Admission is FREE! Dedicated to realizing its mission of "Arts for All," Raue Center is proud to host local talent free of charge to the community. Artists are welcome to hone their skills. Interested in performing?
