Drew, Just wanted to take a moment to comment on "Pills". I think it is a masterpiece in all aspects-writing/recording/vocals/in strumentation & performance. your skills and versatility should serve you well Bravo, sir
Just discovering your stuff in the competition Drew. Fantastic work. I'm a fan. Best of luck to you. I'm loving listening to your stuff and voting you up. You deserve to do well :-)
Shot of Whiskey! How did I miss it before the finals? What a song, what a lyric, what a feeling! This song struts and I look forward to seeing it burn its way straight to country song of the year. All best, Hattie
Shot Of Whiskey.... wow... take a bow my friend! What a song.
Hi Drew ! I stumbled across your music somehow, well I'm truly glad I did.. "'Pieces" is such a beautiful song, wonderfully written , great vocals and production! Not to mention Vince Gill?! Wow amazed. My huge influence for creating my songs is Amy Grant ( obviously his wife) :) wondering if you are still in touch with Vince by chance ? if you ever are in NJ area let me know , or if we are ever down south I would love to see you perform . f you ever need a female vocal on a song let me know . I've done much demo work for song writers all around the globe, though Broadjam. Lately I've been spending most of whatever spare time I do have on my own music. I'm looking forward to listening to more of your work here, many blessings ... Julia
Great songs, Drew. Really like "Shot of Whiskey." Well done.
Great song! Love it!
Drew--Just heard Linen Fortress in the 6-pak and the feeling it creates blew me away. I was mesmerized, hanging on every line. Wonderful piece of music and writing, poetic in the best sense of the word. All best, Hattie
Thank you Hattie!
Drew, I have just one word for your tune, FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!! Going to check out your schedule in Traverse City!!! Great stuff!!!
Thanks so much!!
Thank you Drew for the great and well detailed review of my song, Half The Night. Scott
My pleasure!
Hey Drew -" Time We'll Wasted" great song man - music and vocals - Top Shelf stuff all around Congrats Tony DiPofi
Thank you Tony!! Best to you.
Hey, reviewed a tune of yours today, and it got me to listen to a few other of your tunes. Very nice work man! Makes me value your reviews of my stuff even more. you know of what you speak.
Thanks Michael!! I really enjoy listening to your tunes.
Ok I finally bit the bullet and entered the 6-pack challenge. Let's see what happens.
good luck. your do well. chasing me is great,
Thank you Tristyn!!
Hello drew. I got a kick out of your review of look at all the family. Yep it's as vintage as it gets...1972. First song I ever wrote after becoming a Jesus followed. Do you know michael and Debbie riness? Traverse city friends.
Hi Kate! I don't know them personally, but if it's the same family I know their daughters Joanna and JaLaura.
Very dear friends. We were in campus ministry together many years ago. Look at all the family was a campus ministry classic way back then
Wow! What a small world. It definitely makes sense that it was a camp classic. It felt that way. You never know what you're getting when you do reviews, especially with no context. Haha. So you just make your best guess. Yes, the Rinesses I know are beautiful, wonderful, selfless, kind, and warm people. I imagine the rest follow suit.
okay so here is a "more modern" Mrs. Kate song. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/W8ircVaQjPI
Drew, Big talent! I love it
Thank you so much!!
Hi Drew - I just wanted to mention that I listened to your song, "Pieces", when I saw it was selected by Rex Benson, and loved it. I copied the link to a group on FB I am part of, Life, Love and Hope in an Imperfect World, and people loved it. Besides people like me, it also includes many doctors and other educated folks including a talented Dr. who grad. from Johns Hopkins. Your music is some of the most well-written I've heard in awhile, and with the right connections, you'll be on your way to the top...good luck! Susan
Wow.........I am floored, and so honored. Thank you so much!! That song is such a personal song for me, I had no idea it would speak to others the way it has. Thank you for your kind words, and for listening. All the best to you.
You're welcome, Drew. Many of us have "felt" it...from the very first note. There is such an honesty in your words that many of us can relate to. You have a gift...thanks for sharing it.
Psychic or what - just finished listening to 'Capture the wind' when I noticed your connection request! Good to meet you. Alan
You as well!
Hi Drew, Thanks for the kind review. You're assessment of the music is spot on.
All the best to you!!
PS Funny you mention The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. I did a couple tours with them AND Steve Martin....where I was the solo opening act.... Loved those guys..... Also, I love to hear your band play and record this song...
Wow!! How cool!! The Nitty Gritty boys are one of my all time favs. And thanks for the comment...who knows, maybe we will someday. ;)
Hi Drew..... Great to meet you! Thanks so much for the great review of my song, "I'll Be Your Hero". Very thorough and insightful and Very Useful! Spot-on insight, too. This song was recorded back in 1992 when I was using a Tascam 8-track cassette Porta Studio... which was fun to use, but complicated when bouncing tracks and the EQ mixing was OK, but, per your insight, lacked the dynamics we have available today. Interestingly enough, this song is in the que for reproduction.... So, your feedback is very useful and has great timing.... So, thanks mucho for the fine review. Hope all is well with you... And stop by my site if you'd like to hear the newer songs. Best to you, Chet Nichols
Best of luck with the update! I would love to hear it when you finish.
Hi Drew, It's a small world! Thanks for an honest and useful review of Demons In Your Darkness, very glad you liked it. As you surmised it is not a current track, I wrote it in 2003 and re-recorded it in 2015, just because I like playing it! The guitar is absolutely what comes straight off my Strat and Behringer amp with just a small amount of compression to even it out across the song. There's also enough EQ to clear most of the hum. I tend to go with what I enjoy, rather than any particular sound, but it doesn't always make things commercial. I also have a penchant for the Eagles!! Just had a listen to Home - I love it!! A really beautiful song with a great deal of pathos. Will listen in again soon. Thanks again for the review. Bob
What a great song...I've stopped by your page as well, and am SO enjoying listening.
Thanks Drew.
Thanks very much fun r your positive review of my time be "Gone". Hope one of your tunes comes up with in the review rotation so I can review.
What a great song Pieces is Drew. Well done on getting the song selected - and good luck with it. Bob
Thanks so much Bob! It's a very personal and special song; I'm excited to see where this leads.
Congrats on a fine song Drew!
Thank you so much!
