Play

Catching up with Drew Senunas. It was in northern Michigan 40+ years ago that our families hung out – at the Senunas home on gorgeous Lake Michigan. And that’s where we find “Drewbage” for this interview as we take a little walk down memory lane and hear some super-fun music from Drew’s life. This is part one of a two-part series.
