Steeped in the traditions of roots music, the journey of songwriter Sterling Drake has taken him from the Big Cypress of south Florida to the mountains of western Montana and everywhere in between. With a penchant for honest storytelling, Sterling weaves his own perspective into the American songbook, often highlighting a strong sense of place through both natural imagery and cultural context.

The wells of inspiration for this young artist are as diverse as American music itself. Spurred on by a passion for ranching, in 2024 Sterling is teaming up with nonprofit land conservation and mental health advocacy groups to help address issues impacting the ranching community.
