"Where you are born and raised, I believe, has an impact on who you are as an artist and Newport was a great place to grow up". Drew attended and graduated Berklee College of Music in Boston his influences include Wes, Pat Metheny, Jimi, SRV, Pat Martino, Coltrane, Miles, Sco, The Allman Bros, Santana, Drew expertly strips the music down without all the 'effect' and then gives it right back with such taste and feeling- his collaborations with Osborn have been effortless and prolific. The band is now truly complete with his presence.
