Press Quotes:
DrewV's
latest, Energy Light Matter, manages to be both relaxing
and invigorating. It kicks off with a soul-filled riff slightly
reminiscent of Floyd's Shine on You Crazy Diamond sans
the sinister undertones, and then launches into some Yngwie Malmsteenish
exhilarating acrobatic octave scales without the stuffy sauerkraut
over-satiated feeling. Great tune for firing up some incense, closing
your eyes, wielding your air guitar, and drifting off into cosmic
blues paradise. Hats off to the Drewster!
Michael Heron (Laredo Free Press)
Still
keeping alot of our blues guitar heroes music alive and well, guitarist
Drew Villegan can match up with anything coming out of Austin labeled
a 'blues guitar genius, or guru, or extraordinaire.
