SARATOGA SPRINGS — An active performer and recording artist for more than 40 years, Jon Pousette-Dart will be staging a show at Caffe Lena July 14. 

Pousette-Dart founded The Pousette-Dart Band and carved a place in the landscape of American music in the 1970s, going on to record a series of albums for Capitol Records, two of which (Amnesia and Pousette-Dart Band 3) made the Billboard album chart. Their single “For Love” reached #83 on the Billboard singles chart in 1979.

 A mainstay of album-oriented radio, and a busy touring groups in the U.S., he worked with such acts as The Byrds, Bonnie Raitt, Little Feat, The Eagles, James Taylor, and others. 

After the original group disbanded in the early 1980’s, Pousette-Dart continued performing and recording, releasing five solo albums including 2015s “TALK,” a cohesive selection of his best songs to date.
