Get ready to Oogie Boogie!  We've been invited to join Drew & the Blue in their garage studio to take in some of their garage-kept surf-punk rock-n-roll madness, where they've recorded a bunch of their tracks, like their latest single "Cigarette".

Original parts. Est. 2018 in Reading, Pennsylvania. Drew & the Blue is Drew West, Taylor Lawrence, and Mandy Veloz.

The band takes inspiration from the sounds of garage and surf, along with many of the primordial rock 'n' roll icons. Their debut self-titled album was released in April 2022, and provided the band with a platform to begin touring the east coast of the U.S. 

The Blue has opened for bands such as: Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds, Black Lips, Southern Culture on the Skids, Jon Spencer, Bloodshot Bill, Nekromantix, and Daikaiju.

We take a dive in to their origin stories, inspirations and what they've got planned for the future.  We also share a bunch of their great music, including some highlight from their electric set during Musikfest this past summer.  They also perform "Snakeskin Boots" for us live in the garage and it's not to be missed.

Then we've got a scary surprise for you all - stay tuned for more info - bwwwaaaahhhahahahahahahha!!!
