David Dramm
David Dramm (b.1961) was born in Illinois, growing up in San Diego, California. His composition studies began with Robert Erickson at University of California, San Diego and, later, at Yale University with Louis Andriessen and Earle Brown. The Dutch Volkskrant described his music as "the ground-breaking terrain between Charles Ives, Jimi Hendrix and Lou Reed." As a composer, singer, guitarist and lyricist Dramm “moves effortlessly between the worlds of classical music, improvisation, rock music, theater and dance.”
