Mark Donato sings "I'm Flapping" and other favorites
WHERE'S HE BEEN?
Mark Donato lived his first 18 years in Connellsville, PA, graduated to Pittsburgh, saved $1000 and moved to New York City, where he inherited a band.
He spent the late 1980s, the ‘90s and the early ‘00s bouncing around New York's underground music scene, and then headed Upstate to find a real garage where he could play his songs.
He's performed his own material under his own name, with Canoeful of Strangers and with Spondee, a collaboration with Robin Goldwasser for the fabled Hello Recording Club.
He's worked as a drummer, singer and harmonica player for John Linnell (of They Might Be Giants) & the Statesmen; the legendary country orchestra Flat Old World; Rosine; the Oswalds; and Amy Allison and the Maudlins.
You should hear his songs.
