Di Dollari

Di Dollari began as a collaboration between Paul Horn (Ousia, Shapeshifter) and Glen Jones (Grow Like Topsy) in 1996. It slowly evolved into an actual group over several years by adding the musicianship of Dave Onnen (Ousia, Skye Klad, Salamander) and Matt Zaun (Blitzen, Skye Klad, Salamander) and Mike Croswell (Metaphor).

Di Dollari's instrumental sound combines elements of Americana, jazz, soundtrack, surf, and western sounds. Di Dollari is influenced by guitar-based music with a dusty edge such as the Ennio Morricone western compositions but also is influenced by the ambient, space rock, and post-punk histories of its members.

Over the years Di Dollari has played a number of live shows at notable Twin Cities venues and the greater Midwest. The group was a regular feature in the avant-garde Future Perfect series and performed closing nights at both Sursumcorda and Duluth's Norshore Theater.

Di Dollari is:

Glen Jones - Baritone Guitar and Whistle

Paul Horn - 6 String Guitar and Mandolin

Dave Onnen - Bass Guitar and Double Bass

Matt Zaun - Drums and Percussion

Mike Croswell - Harmonica and Accordian
