"Drew's music is hip and understated, steeped in vintage jazz and blues, with a melodic touch
all his own. Amidst his supple, spacious arrangements, the artful players stretch out beautifully."
- Kirk Nurock: composer, jazz pianist, New School professor
THIS IS MY FIFTH ALBUM OF ORIGINALS, 45 OF WHICH HAVE BEEN RECORDED SO FAR
I WAS PROMPTED TO DO THIS ALBUM FOR TWO REASONS: MY 60TH BIRTHDAY WAS COMING UP AND I WANTED TO REMEMBER MY MOTHER (INDEED SEVERAL TUNES WERE
WRITTEN BECAUSE OF MY EXPERIENCES WITH HER, MARY. “DID YOU PUT THE LIGHTS
ON?”, FOR EXAMPLE, DEALS WITH MY COMING TO GRIPS WITH HER REPETITIVE
DEMENTIA IN HER FINAL YEARS.) DUE IN NO SMALL PART TO THE EXCELLENT PLAYING ON THIS ALBUM, I FEEL IT IS MY BEST EFFORT TO DATE!
