The term “literature with guitars” was coined by writer George Pelicanos. It certainly applies to this novelistic/cinematic song by David Olney, who gets an entire story of desperation due to a life gone wrong down in just four minutes. David rarely appears in the New York City area, but I just learned last night that he’ll be performing at a house concert on the Lower East Side next Sunday, May 1, at 6pm. Tickets are $20.
