As a 12-year-old Drew Baldridge and his buddy rolled his father's Old MGB in front of the derby crowd because the car wouldn't even start, the youngster was already a seasoned performer. The duo went on to perform a stellar rendition of "Greased Lightning" with his buddy in the back of the car, fake cigarette in mouth, sliding down the front of the car, and with detailed choreography to match the racy lyrics. You could say it was quite salacious

In 2013, Drew signed with THiS Music, joining the ranks of Nashville's most prominent and prolific songwriters. He went on to release his debut EP, All Good and his singles "BYOB" and "She's Taken" became midwestern radio staples.

His new music project, Crossing County Lines is being released in three installments throughout 2015. The first volume was released this past December and debuted at #15 on the iTunes Country Chart. CCL Vol. II released April 7.

Known as much as a performer as a singer, Drew brings a rousing, energy-packed show to every opening or headlining date. "I am so very excited for my fans and future fans to hear my song 'Dance With Ya.' I went into the songwriting session with this melody in my head, and I said I want something that I could dance to. That's what we created," says Baldridge. The tune features a horn section, hypnotic chorus and topped off with Drew's signature dance moves, "Dance With Ya" is destined to be a crowd-pleaser
