Dru

Growing up in Toronto and passionately pursuing his music career since 1993, the Juno and MMVA award winner’s major influences include Marvin Gaye, Donnie Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, D’Angelo and Jay-Z. In 2008, Dru's presence was felt on Canada’s CHR/Top 40 and Hot AC stations. In April 2008 this presence was solidified with Dru being named CHUM's Emerging Artist of the Month. Dru's first three singles ‘The One’, ‘Stay with Me (Always)’ and ‘Seasons’ share strong rotation across the country, with videos for all three songs appearing on all major media outlets. With the release of his new single "Never Too Late" Dru continues to prove that he is settling into his own on the Canadian music charts. Dru has been identified by Billboard Magazine as one of the most Important Emerging Canadian Artists, and his debut solo release reinforces that he is “The Prince of the North”. Dru’s new album “The One” is released by Effortless Entertainment and Morojele Music Group and distributed in Canada by Fontana North and Universal. Before becoming a solo artist, Dru was the front man for R&B group In Essence. The group went on to release the award winning album "The Master Plan" with hit songs such as "You'll Never Find" which was featured on Funk Master Flex's gold selling "60 Minutes of Funk Vol. 4". It's this same tenacity, dedication and innovation that has defined Dru’s career as a solo artist. Currently based in Toronto, Dru is a force in the industry both as a performer and song writer. Maintaining his drive, humility and class, Dru is poised to introduce a new brand and style to the R&B world. 更多>>
