“it doesn’t happen often that I put in a cd the first day I receive it, much less that I absolutely love it on first listen. This cd will be a regular in the upcoming Acoustic Harmony playlists for the foreseeable future”
– Mark Michaelis Host; Acoustic Harmony, WGDR Folk Music Director (May 05, 2009)

– Barry Marshall-Everitt, House Of Mercy (May 05, 2009)
“What a fantastic album this is! I was expecting something enjoyable after Immigrant Son, but I was really blown away by the consistent strength of this record.”
– Shaun Whitehouse, Gilded Palace Radio Show (UK) (Apr 20, 2009)
“Drew just can’t fail to engage your senses, and this really is a rather special record, a highly evocative yet admirably subtle mini-epic of modern-day Americana.”
– David Kidman , Net Rythms (Apr 01, 2009)
“The Dusty Road… is enjoyable & evocative of a timeless America, but with very modern concerns.”
– Ian Fildes, Americana-uk (Mar 18, 2009)
“He wasn’t afraid to get dramatic, or poignant, or funny, or political, or loud, when necessary in a CD-release show that was as impressive as any I’ve seen for a West Michigan artist.”
– John Sinkevics , Sound Check | The Grand Rapids Press
“Drew is a Michigan Guy Clark for his generation”.
– John (Biscuits and Gray) Davy , Flyin Shoes Review UK
