“A Remarkable Debut Album”- New York Times
Hazel is a great introduction to one of the East Coast's liveliest ensembles led by Drew, who plays bass clarinet on the album. The recording, produced by GRAMMY-nominee Alan Ferber, was released in February 2019 on ears&eyes Records. Hazel boasts serial surprises, including an adventurous suite written and arranged by Drew that is based on the popular graphic novel, Saga, and an intoxicating cover of Tune-Yards' "Look Around." Hazel is a work of airy futurism with its layered effects and electronic touches. Downbeat Magazine named it one of the best albums of 2019.
