Bio

37-year old singer-songwriter-guitar player from St. Louis, MO with an improvisational guitar style and focus on writing and playing "feel-good" music. Raised in St. Louis, MO, Drew Acree started playing guitar at the age of nine. Through his high school and college years, improvisational influences including Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Jerry Garcia took hold. After performing in the St. Louis music scene as a member of the originally-focused group Sensafeelia, Drew turned his attention toward completing a Master of Business degree (MBA). While completing his degree, Drew continued his guitar work while developing his vocal range in the band Vertigo Sun. Upon completion of his MBA, Drew left Vertigo Sun to pursue writing and performing his own originally-focused music. Drawing on inspiration of fellow solo artists as well as the birth of his first child, a demo titled ”Whole and Pure” was recorded in August 2006.

In May of 2007, one of the "Whole and Pure" tracks titled "Wok-on" received a Top 500 Honorable Mention in the 14th annual Billboard World Music Songwriting contest. The honor "demonstrates the talent and dedication it takes to write a hit song". Another track, "Rain", also received an honorable mention, placing in the Top 1500 of all entries.

In November of 2009, "Free your mind", a self-released 10-song album will be unveiled showcasing musical range from acoustic alternative to electric rock to bluegrass. Residing in St. Louis, MO, Drew shares a home with wife and children while co-owning and operating Chameleon Integrated Services, a minority-certified Information Technology consulting firm focused on delivering solutions for Federal and State Government agencies.

Drew provides entertainment for a variety of events ranging from bars and restaurants to wineries, festivals, private parties, outdoor amphitheaters, and benefit/charitable functions.
