The Top Drawers

Rock / Indie / Blues

North Vancouver, Canada

About

Everybody knows that the top drawer is where all the best secrets are kept safe. Perhaps twelve of Vancouver's best secrets are the songs contained on The Top Drawers' new CD, "You're So Fine". Richly steeped in 1960s Brit-rock flavour, The Top Drawers are intent on reviving the joy, the energy, and the fun of rock 'n' roll. All twelve songs were recorded, mixed, and mastered in a mere seven days. As a result, the band has managed to capture all of the chemistry and the intensity of their live show on a studio recording.

Band mates Patrick Jacobson, Del Cowsill, and Phil Bell have only been creating music together for just over a year. However, it hasn't taken them long to collect the adoration of music-scenesters and would-be sock-hoppers everywhere they've played. Perhaps it's because their obvious homage to 1960s rock music comes very naturally. The band's drummer, Del Cowsill, is the offspring of Billy Cowsill of The Cowsills, and Del's uncle, John Cowsill, performs with the latest incarnation of The Beach Boys. It also doesn't hurt that the CD was mixed by Canadian audio-guru/Odds-alumnus, Steven Drake. The resulting vibe is so sincere that the only cover song on the CD, "Just Out Of Reach" by The Zombies, feels right at home here among The Top Drawers' original compositions.

Over the past year The Top Drawers have toured all over BC, Alberta and the Yukon and have performed at festivals such as The North Country Fair in Joussard, Alberta and the 4th Avenue Hippy Daze festival in Vancouver, BC. The band's live shows have become exuberant events characterized by call-and-answer choruses, handclaps, and barrages of lead guitar. It is unapologetically rock 'n' roll in its truest form.
