Dawes bringing back storytelling to lyric writing

In the 1970s, the Laurel Canyon area of Los Angeles was the epicenter of the singer-songwriter movement, home to Jackson Browne, Joni Mitchell, the Eagles and Fleetwood Mac.

L.A.'s Dawes, touring in support of its album "Nothing is Wrong," is seen by many as an heir to the movement, due to its folk-rock sound, harmonies and storytelling lyrics.
