The focus of Drew’s workshop will be Bottomlands Architecture: Introducing Shape and Range to the Bassline, WITHOUT Sacrificing Sound … PLUS other issues.
As a New York staple, he is one of the hardest working guys in the business. He has been awarded grants from major arts institutions such as The National Endowment for the Arts and Meet The Composer. And, Jagged Sky and Spin & Drift, album titles that also serve as band names, have both received rave reviews. The New York Times called Jagged Sky, “One of downtown’s most promising bands.” The Village Voice described Spin & Drift as “an intimidating brood whose sundry skills are likely to forge a sense of grand abstraction and disarming cogency. Pregnant with possibility, this is a first-time grouping you hope will sustain itself.”
