The Rachel Drew Band

Rachel Drew’s music has been featured on NPR’s Great American Folk Show and WFMT’s legendary Midnight Special program. Alongside her band she creates a dynamic force on stage. Alan Harrison of The Rocking Magpie writes of Rachel’s latest album, “There’s something of a hint of “Dusty in Memphis,” minus the strings here; as Rachel has a similar breathy and pearlescent voice that reels you in, and before you know it you’re sitting totally engrossed in the offering coming out of the speakers… In many ways songs like “Stuck In The House All Day” and “Please Don’t Wake Me Up” are Classic Country songs; but the arrangements are pure Laurel Canyon at its height when Linda Ronstadt and Mama Cass could do no wrong.”
Her latest album, “Old Sky New,” has been recognized as one of the 13 Best Chicago Albums of 2024 by the Chicago Sun-Times and WBEZ/Vocalo-NPR.
