He's conquered the digital music realm--and plenty of hard-drives--with a trifecta of self-released EPs marinated in good vibes and positivity. Now Christofer Drew--known to the world as Never Shout Never--is taking his place front-and-center as the headliner for the 2010 AP Tour. Drew rolled out of Joplin, Missouri, with a penchant for whimsical tunes (and an eccentric fashion sense), powered by a lot of heart. On his upcoming album, What Is Love? (issued via Warner Bros. on the singer's own Loveway imprint), Drew offers the listening audience everything from sprite pop ("Can't Stand It") to poignant balladry ("The Past") to swinging glam ("I Love You 5"), all fueled by a warehouse-sized supply of charisma. Seriously: Dude can drop an f-bomb during a song and can simultaneously impress your annoying siblings and your 'rents, while your grandma willingly bakes him cookies, without judgment. When NSN hit the stage of the AP Tour, listeners' hearts will swell; haters' guards will melt; and a massive installation of smiles will have been completed nightly.
