Hailing from the river city of Dayton, Ohio, drexel emerged from the primordial mold found amidst the empty liquor bottle and leftover food packages festering in the alleys of this American enclave of carp fishing and auto manufacturing infested alcoholics.

drexel is fronted by David Sparks, a hulking comedic hillbilly son of a preacher man who spent his formative years in small coal mining towns in the Eastern Kentucky Appalachian mountains. Raised on gospel, bluegrass and Black Flag, Sparks' booming voice has been described as an amalgamation of Merle Haggard, Etta James, Elvis Presley and Glen Danzig. His combination of vocal range, combined with razor-sharp lyricism and witty intelligence and a dose of soul produces a sound that only a life spent on the brink of America's insanity-riddled underclass can produce.

Along with the widely varied and talented musicianship and writing skills of Brian Pelfrey and the percussion precision of The Alchemist, drexel is poised to make music they hope grabs its listeners by the heart and soul and wrenches it for a few moments.
