Welcome to 2026!

Spring has officially rolled into Vermont— and a wonderful spring it has been already - NO MUD SEASON. The calendar is quietly getting busier (as it always does when the sun sticks around long enough to convince us winter is actually over). New dates have landed, more are on the way, and it’s shaping up to be a full summer of music, laughs, and the occasional “just one more song” that somehow turns into three.

Shake off the cabin fever, step into the sunshine, and make a little time for live music—you’ll find me somewhere in the mix. Hope to see you at a gig soon.

Check out the calendar for upcoming dates.

Don Dawson brings a fresh and engaging twist to acoustic music, turning songs we all know and love into unforgettable performances. From hits of the ’40s to today’s favorites, Don keeps audiences entertained whether it’s at a pub, a private party, or a public house.

What’s new: Lots of new songs added, plus your requests keep reshaping the setlist every month. Come see what’s playing next!
