David Dragov

As the world celebrated the bicentennial anniversary of Ludwig Van Beethoven's birth, David Dragov was born. Like Beethoven, Dragov headed south to pursue his musical career. In Dragov's case, heading south meant moving from his homeland Canada to the centre of musical culture - New York City. Listening to Dragov's music, one hears a myriad of influences ranging from Busta Rhymes to Radiohead, from Igor Stravinsky to Beck. Lyrically, he explores both the philosophical and the sociological.
