With our featured reader, poet and songwriter Dusty Santamaria
Dusty Santamaria is a songwriter, performer, poet, and painter currently living in Portland, OR. He is the author of the poetry collection Time and Other Thieves as well as the composer of the albums Getting Back to God Knows Where, Existential Detective Rock and Roll and Now That I’ve Stopped Killing. His writing features a “distinctly American surrealism;” his visual art has been described by the Portland Rearguard as “authentic and raw! Basic and romantic! Primitivism at its finest.” Santamaria has toured nationally and internationally with the bands Deadhorse Hwy and the Singing Knives, a garage, soul, rhythm and blues outfit that often serves as Santamaria’s backing band. The group’s live shows are defined by a caustic energy and the signature, unorthodox playing of guitarist Galen Ballinger. For more info, visit https://dustysantamaria.bandcamp.com/
