HE OLD QUARTER IS A LISTENING ROOM. LOUD CONVERSATION DURING ARTIST'S PERFORMANCE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. PLEASE CONSIDER THIS WHEN PURCHASING TICKETS TO SHOWS.
Dustin Perkins, always the passionate writer and performer, has just emerged from a decade of self-imposed exile in the mountains of Southeast Oklahoma to bring to you another album, a fresh take on life and rejuvenated stage show!
Don Stalling is a Texas-based songwriter whose work centers on melody, structure, and story. His songs are shaped by close attention to language and pacing, with an emphasis on writing that feels considered and intimate. Over time, his catalog has reflected a steady refinement, moving toward clearer themes and a more focused sense of voice.
His music draws from a wide range of influences, including Turnpike Troubadours, Pony Bradshaw, Dwight Yoakam, and the emotional directness of bands like Brand New. Those influences converge in a sound that moves between country, Americana, and indie, without settling into strict categories.
Stalling grew up in North Texas, but spent significant time in the southern part of the state, experiences that continue to inform his sense of place and perspective. Based in the DFW area, he has built a reliable live following through consistent listening room performances and a reputation for measured, song-forward shows.
