Drew Womack is such a talented vocalist that it’s often easy to forget his song-writing ability (Lee Ann Womack’s I Hope You Dance).  Womack first hit the national recording scene with his band Sons of the Desert out of Waco, TX.

Signed to Epic Records in 1997, their debut album, Whatever Comes First, spawned several country radio hits including the title track, which charted in the Billboard Top 10.  In 2003, Womack released his first, self-titled solo album, which resulted in two top-five singles and an international tour.

His most recent album, Sunshine To Rain, is a new beginning as well as a significant musical departure for Womack.  Free from the rigor of tailoring his music to meet the confines of country radio, the new recording has a cutting edge sound that mixes Americana, crossover and the familiar alt-country twang that his fans will instantly recognize.

Moreover, the album is infused with unique instrumentation (sitar, horns) on many of the tracks and marks a new musical approach — a retro-modern sound Womack jokingly refers to as “Gangsta Folk.”
