Guest Artist - Drew Nelson

















Today North High welcomed critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Drew Nelson to campus.

"Every generation has its poets; the writers, musicians, and lyricists who capture the spirit and longings of their time.  Those who give expression to our own personal memories and dreams as though they know us.  They tell our stories, giving us the words we need to celebrate or let go.  That is the soil in which singer/songwriter Drew Nelson has been toiling.  Legendary songwriter John Gorka said "Drew's songs sound like the rest of us feel.  His characters are anything but defeated. They are dazed, angry, amazed and climbing."


Special thanks to our North High Music Boosters for supporting Mr. Nelson's appearance in guitar, orchestra, choir, band and MIDI music classes today.
