Recent Where-and-what-abouts:
A dear (and lurpy) friend of mine recently came to San francisco along with his terrific wife-cohort Lynette to reside in my clumsy studio space and toss final kisses into his newest album. Their presence was a treat for me and the work we shared was good. He’s Drew Danburry. Many of you know him and those of you who don’t, should. Drew is a songer who has been pouring blood into his craft for years. This gentleman has been touring incessantly, playing more than 750 shows since 2005. I met Drew while still living in Utah when he graciously invited me to tour with him after noticing my own commitment to such struggles. We became real friends as we steered my lovely pink grampa-van throughout minor America, singing to strangers and eating plain food.
When Drew’s recent album came close to completion, I called him and begged him to let me steal it, manipulate it, and mix it. Happily he accepted. I fell in love with much of his new stuff. and I think that many others will find it inspiring too.
The album is “Goodnight Dannii”. The following track is called “Hero Kensan”.
