BIOGRAPHY
Hi. I’m Drew Mangler and I play music. I played drums in a few Philadelphia-based bands throughout the years – one being signed to a small label – but stepped away from the kit three years ago to start singing and playing guitar. This year’s album was entirely conceived through the use of MIDI and Pro Tools. All my heroes have been singer-songwriters, but especially John Darnielle and Bob Dylan. I’m very proud of this album and I hope you like it.

Completed Albums

Nothing Sharp(2011)

Drums and synths with folk lyrics. They are simple songs but I put my heart into them.
