Summer Dregs

Summer Dregs is the pseudonym of Carl Cadwell, a gospel and fusion organist- turned-producer. He has collaborated with Neon Indian, BbyMutha, YGTUT, Superbody, Johnny Balik, Nick Lutsko and many others. His work has been featured in Stereogum, Tiny Mix Tapes, PopDust, and PAPER mag.

Bringing stunningly unexpected and unique music to life, Carl specializes in helping artists execute their own story, sound, and vision - that only they and he together could make.

Carl started off touring with jazz-fusion and old soul outfits. Though the percussion and urgency of those early groups can still be felt in his production, his love for the rhythms of modern R&B and global-pop soon took center stage.

Summer Dregs started when Carl‘s drive to blend pop and experimentalism could no longer be contained in a single band. He started producing and writing songs with a myriad of artists under the name Summer Dregs. His penchant for reckless ecstasy, neon synths and collaboration has led him to produce for many musicians in the burgeoning Chattanooga scene and beyond.
