TMP310 DUSTAN LOUQUE IN THE HOUSE

The Folk/Trip Hop songwriter, singer, and guitarist left the Stella Adler Conservatory, recorded an independent record, and got signed to Atlantic. Disillusioned with the major label experience, he fell in with Nels Cline and the NYC Downtown scene, recording music outside the dying corporate music machine. Tonight, on a break from house concert tours, Dustan drops in for an intimate evening with the Troubled Men. He can't get more outside the system than that.
