Drew Preston Guitar and Vocals
The Virtuoso’s Evolution
From the gritty sessions of NYC to the soulful stages of the South, Drew Preston is a guitarist’s guitarist. A master of the "Classic School"—tracing his lineage through Hendrix, Santana, and the Allman Brothers—Preston elevated his craft in the 80s NYC fusion scene. There, his precision and phrasing earned him frequent comparisons to titans like Steve Lukather and Larry Carlton.
After relocating South, Drew became the region’s premier "triple threat" in Southern Rock, Jazz, and Funk. His resume reads like a hall of fame roster, featuring long-term stints with Southern Blood, The Freebirds, and an iconic 8-year run as the House Guitarist for the Funky Biscuit All-Stars. Whether leading his own acclaimed quartet, The Drew Preston Project, or touring with heavy hitters like The Rockin’ Jake Band, Preston delivers a range of musicianship that consistently defies expectations.
