Confronting and engaging his audience, the one thing Dave Drake isn’t is predictable. But if uproarious applause, and calls of “genius!” and “encore!” are anything to go by, that suits tonight’s audience just fine.” - The Argus

“Dave isn't afraid of a simple, appealing tune, but also delights in unexpected shifts of rhythm and register – jagged handfuls of notes drift like petals tossed over deep still pools of bass.” - Jazzwise
