Drew from Single Mothers is gearing up to release his first solo LP as The DrewThomson Foundation later this year. The first taste comes in the form of “LA Lately.”
DrewThomson has lived through his share of ups and downs. The same kinds of trials and tribulations that most people encounter. What sets him apart is his how he captures and relates to the highs and lows. Whether you’re a businessman in the city or a gold prospector 14 hours north of anything, there are always highs and lows.
Here are his thoughts on the new song:
Tripping over substance abuse and retreating from responsibility isn’t a new theme, but it’s relatable. I spent half my life sweeping up the night before and avoiding what caused the mess, determined it was the place I was living, not the life I was living that was the true problem. It’s a fight most of us go through it sometime in our 20’s. This song is just about a punch in that fight, not the knock out or the beginning – but a snippet somewhere between yelling at the bouncer and hearing the sirens getting closer down the street.
