# Zero with a Bullet further cements acclaimed singer/songwriter David Dondero’s place alongside the great American songwriters Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney and Tom Waits. Named one of the “best living songwriters” by NPR’s All Songs Considered in 06, here Dondero’s narrative storytelling introduces a new cast of characters, themes and instruments set against a folk rock backdrop sustained by his warbled vocals and acoustic guitar. # Zero with a Bullet is Dondero’s third album on Conor Oberst’s Team Love label, and these ten tracks range from great to stunning with standouts like the title track, “Just A Baby In Your Momma’s Eyes,” “It’s Peaceful Here,” “Carolina Moon,” “Wherever You Go,” and “All These Fishies Swimmin’ Through My Head.” All in all, # Zero with a Bullet is a fantastic release, the latest installment in a rich musical canon. – Written by JFelton
