Dawn Landes

QRO goes back to the blue grasses of Louisville, Kentucky as we turn on spotlight onto songstress Dawn Landes.

Name: Dawn Landes

Hometown: Louisville, KY (now lives in Brooklyn, NY)

Albums: Dawn's Music (2004), Two Three Four EP (2006), Fireproof (2008), Sweetheart Radio (2010)

Has toured with: Federico Aubele, Balthrop, Alabama, Feist, HEM, Will Hoge, Jason Isbell, The Morning Benders, Josh Ritter, The Submarines, The Tindersticks, Suzanne Vega, The Weakerthans, Ben Weaver, The Wedding Present, Justin Townes Earle (upcoming), Chris Knight (upcoming)

If Dawn was an animal, she'd be: the wild and free filly that won New York's Belmont Stakes

Or if she were a food, she'd be: Chilean sea bass (the endangered one you're not supposed to order, but you do...)
