Drew Pace is a country music singer-songwriter from Scottsville, Virginia, a small town near Charlottesville. From a young age, Drew had a passion for music; however, sports dominated his life, pushing music to the background. At the age of 13, Drew suffered a serious football injury that revealed he had damaged his only kidney. With the discovery that he was born with just one kidney and that it was now damaged, he realized contact sports were no longer a part of his future.

Feeling defeated, Drew did not know how he would fill his time since sports were all he knew. However, things changed when his pastor visited him in the hospital. He handed Drew a pair of drumsticks and encouraged him to learn to play the drums. This moment changed Drew's life forever by igniting a passion for music that had been dormant. Since that day, he has embraced music wholeheartedly, expanding his talents to singing and songwriting.

Drew is a skilled musician who plays multiple instruments, including acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and drums. At 21 years old, he made significant strides in his music career by signing with MC1 Nashville. He wrote his first song, "Heart of an Angel," at the age of 18, which was released in August 2022. The song climbed the Chart Toppers Indie & Major Mix/Country Chart. Since then, Drew has released two new singles: "Let Me Know Now" and "Surefire Way."
