Drew Elliott is the guitarist and vocalist for SevenStones, a no-nonsense hard rock band out of Chattanooga, TN. The band formed in 2017, and has since released two full length records. One of those records is called Hurt Turns Into Hate, and has just been released through the Pavement Entertainment record label.
In this interview, Drew talks about writing the new record and how the band has changed and evolved from their previous release. He also discusses the band name, his love for touring, and how the all-girl band Plush contributed to their signing with the Pavement Entertainment label.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
