DREW MACHAK

 

Ten years in the making, Drew Machak has turned himself into a multi-instrumentalist who incorporates looping, on the fly harmonizing, plus a wide range of covers and originals. From Stevie Wonder, Jose Feliciano, & The Doors to Sam Smith, Jack Johnson, & Pharrell Williams.

 

Drew keeps a pretty low profile but is a regular performer in downtown Detroit, Royal Oak, and Birmingham. His original music is heading in the direction of Michigan-summertime-good-feels – if that makes any sense! Giving people a sound that is soothing and uplifting is the goal, whereas his previous albums were more based in the singer-songwriter category with dramatic elements like strings, horns, and introspective lyrics.

Now 26, Machak realizes that his job as a musician is actually about making people forget about their worries, which is something you can see take place in the crowd now when you come to hear him sing.
