Timeline
Martin Drew (11 February 1944 – 29 July 2010) was an English jazz drummer who played with Ronnie Scott between 1975 and 1995 and with Oscar Peterson between 1974 and 2007.
Martin Drew was born on 11 February 1944 in Northampton, England, and started to play the drums when he was six years old.
He played his first professional engagement at the age of 13.
Studying with drummer George Fierstone gave Drew a solid musical and technical background.
Drew was best known for his extensive work in Oscar Peterson and Ronnie Scott's groups, with which he became an international name.
He also played at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club with many famous visiting American jazz musicians.
Drew was also a member of a trio led by Eddie Thompson.
The group played the music of the original Jazz Couriers (1957–59), a group led by Ronnie Scott and Tubby Hayes.
This new band was completed by Nigel Hitchcock on tenor saxophone, Steve Melling on piano, and Andrew Cleyndert on double-bass.
He was often heard playing on BBC Radio 2's Sounds of Jazz programme in the 1970s, which was introduced by Peter Clayton on Sunday evenings.
During the 1980s, Drew and keyboardist John Critchinson played simultaneously with the Ronnie Scott Quartet (the fourth band member was bassist Ron Mathewson) and with the jazz group Morrissey–Mullen.
When Morrissey-Mullen disbanded in 1988, Drew led a quintet called Our Band with Dick Morrissey, Jim Mullen (originally Louis Stewart), Critchinson, and Mathewson.
Between 1997 and 2000, Drew led a quartet with Mornington Lockett on tenor saxophone, Gareth Williams on piano, and Laurence Cottle on electric bass.
In 2000, Drew formed the Celebrating The Jazz Couriers quintet with Mornington Lockett.
The group won the 2002 British Jazz Award for Best Small Group.
The New Couriers band reformed in 2003 with Paul Morgan on double-bass and Jim Hart on vibraphone.
Lockett and Melling returned on tenor saxophone and piano.
