Live in the North East05 / About Drew
Back in from
the cold.
After years of regular live performances in overseas holiday resorts, cruise ships, uk pubs, clubs and private functions, Drew took a very long break. Now the microphone is back where it belongs.
Drew is a self-contained male solo vocalist with his own PA. The show draws on years of live experience and a songbook spanning soul, classic pop, rock and modern favourites. Sets can be relaxed, lively or somewhere you’ve yet to think of, depending on the room.
Professional equipment. Straightforward booking. No mysterious fees appearing five minutes before the encore.
