Known as young friend by people who don’t know him as Drew Tarves, the Vancouver-based musician is old school by preference and new school by circumstance. While navigating modern production and bedroom-pop methods for creating his tracks, he still keeps a distance from the digital world in ways he can - through pen and paper, vintage sweaters, candlelight, and a taste for classic pre-internet romance. He is a heartthrob that emerges from the hybridity of the present and the not-so-distant past. In his freetime he listens to indie folk tunes such as Bon Iver.
