American Songwriter Magazine “[David Ross Macdonald] is one of those few songwriters like Nick Drake, Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes), and Josh Ritter that can captivate his listeners armed only with a voice and guitar.”
Acoustic Guitar Magazine “David Ross MacDonald's vocals, lyrics, and intricate fingerstyle guitar playing bring to mind a collaboration
between Nick Drake and a mid-1970s Bruce Cockburn... “
Penguin Eggs Magazine "...deft guitar playing ... polished songwriting ... pristine, thoughtful folk rock..."
Wonderful to catch your set at the Wheaty on Sunday, David Ross MacDonald - just sublime, as always. Take care on your travels and hopefully see you soon for some house party mayhem. xx
g'day dave, you reckon you got another station 59 gig in you? we'd love to have you back! i'll go a bit lighter on the philosophy and science conversations this time. there's a coopers stout in it for ya!
Hi Dave, still loving your mood envoking music, I see by your gig guide you aren't doing the east coast of Aussie too soon. I hope to catch up with you again oneday soon.
Apparently it is actually 'donkey's ears' because they are long (but not compared to rabbits), and over time and the grape vine it got changed to 'donkey's years'.
So if you saw someone just yesterday you could say 'I haven't seen you in turtle's ears'...
Hey Dave! We are in Oz at the same time! Sending you Oz summer hugs, miss you. Hey, I drank home brew with Kim D on New Years Eve in Candelo! We talked about how much you rock. You rock.
Thanks a lot for the add, David! Really like a lot what I hear on your payer. Hope you'll have a great gig in Toronto. I'll send some of my Canadian friends out there tonight :o))

I can't wait to be back in the heat and the dust with you my far-traveling friend... Kerrville is gonna change our lives, call for a complete re-write of our souls... everything we've experienced pre-Kerrville will seem as an abstract wreckage...

Thanks for your kind words david. i was just playing thru your album the other day and thinking how lucky i was to be part of it. i've put in some hard hours on the bid wooden bassoon of late. would be good to have a play with you next time we're in the same place together.
