Drew Ramsey and Shannon Sanders met while both were on the Contemporary Christian music circuit. Finding common interest in R&B they began to write together. Shannon plays trumpet and keyboard, while Drew plays bass and guitar. They have been working together for over 15 years and both live in Nashville, Tennessee, US.
Careeredit
Ramsey and Sanders began writing and working together and ended up creating Sanders' album "Outta Nowhere." Although the disc was released on the tiny Southern Way Records, it earned good reviews and caught the attention of in-the-know R&B fans. The Arista Records band Next decided to work with Sanders and Ramsey as a result of the disc. More importantly, though, the disc found its way to Atlanta-based R&B vocalist India.Arie, who had just been signed to Universal Records. She brought her mother and the executive who signed her to Universal to Ramsey's house to talk about writing songs together.
Drew and Shannon are co-writers of "Good Man," 2003 Grammy nominated for Best R&B Song and co-producers on the album Voyage to India, 2003 Grammy winner for Best R&B album. Both the song and album are performed by India.Arie.
They continued to work with many other artists the next couple of years, such as Mark Broussard, Jesse McCartney, and Heather Headley, before hitting it big again with another Grammy-winning Best Rock Gospel album with Jonny Lang's Turn Around.
From then they have written and produced many records with many major label artist including: Robert Randolph, Mandisa, David Archuleta, John Legend.[1]
