“…Like the early ‘80’s Siouxsie, Drake is takes-no-trash smart and saucy, an attitude tailor made for the hypnotic, also tough atmospheric guitar webs behind her.” -- Jack Rabid --- The Big Take-Over ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tune in to the USA Network show 'Royal Pains' this Thursday, August 6th. Gonna be some Drakes Hotel on there. The soundtrack for that show will never sound this good again, so don't miss it....
I find maybe one or two bands every so often that stick out. I am really enjoying your myspace these past couple of days. Looking forward to seeing you perform these most terrific tunes in June. Best- eM
