Drew Hall
I was born and raised in Queens, New York (lets go Mets!). My father, Tom
Hall, introduced me to music by way of the juke box at the Palace Diner in
Queens. I started playing guitar at twelve, when a friend of ours, Ted
Ruben, gave me my first guitar, a Kimberly hollow body. Soon
after that my dad bought me a '69 Fender Telecaster reissue with his entire tax
refund.
My first band was called Rasp, and we rocked the Ryan JHS 216 talent
show. I think I was 14. My family moved to Arizona when I was 16,
and I got involved in various bands and sideman
projects.
I was inspired to start playing the blues when watching Little Jr. with the Leisure Kings,
and a few years later I joined the band as the bass player. The blues
kept calling, and I helped start Big Daddy D and the Dynamites with Darryl,
Anton Teschner, and Jake Sammeli. This time I got to play guitar and sing.
