THE TEAM

Dave Tregenza

In time honoured fashion, the soul of Mr Dave Tregenza was lost to the Devil following the discovery of rock n’ roll. Forsaking classical training in both piano and cello for the bass guitar, Dave hit the road with his band only moments after hearing Sticky Fingers for the second time.

Notoriety brought the band to London, but it was in-between expansive, globe-spanning tours that Dave discovered his natural aptitude for cocktail conception whilst tending bar at the much-lauded Northbank restaurant. After an invitation from GM Chris Edwards, Dave defected to the Drake & Morgan camp where he made his name as in house innovator, bar manager and co-conspirator to his new creative partner. Now forming one half of Salts of the Earth, the worldly ambition of this travelling music “cocktail” maker is limited only by the scope of your imagination
CHRIS EDWARDS

Ever the experimentalist, Mr Edwards traversed the many roads necessary before calling himself a man. After fingering his way from the fretless neck of a double bass to the Fin de siècle institutions of fine art and design, Chris found work in the cavernous vaults of a subterranean private-members club beneath the Strand, and was submerged forever in the sea of hospitality.

A restless appetite for creativity and expression helped pave his way to Drake & Morgan, for whom Chris travelled to the far reaches of the globe in search of inspiration for the innovative cocktail lists he and Mr Tregenza would design for them. Now forming one half of Salts of the Earth, the worldly ambition of this travelling tincture-tailor is limited only by the scope of your imagination.
