The first few times I went to Drink Josey Packard was the bartender who served us. The first time I went she made me a Vesper, and another time she made me a damn fine Manhattan. So today I was pleasantly surprised to come across this interview with her on Drinkboston.com.
In addition to bartending, she's also a musician and used to be the lead singer of Chelsea on Fire. Who knew?
Oh, and btw, if you haven't been to Drink you should go!! I like to go when it isn't crowded, because a big part of the fun is sitting at the bar and watching the bartenders do their stuff. It's like watching artists or craftsmen. There's no drink list. You either tell them the name of the drink you want, or you tell them what you're in the mood for and they'll serve up a cocktail that fits the bill. One bartender even made up a cocktail on the fly, and it was killer! And if you don't believe me, then you can trust the Boston Phoenix, which declared Drink home of the Best Artisan Cocktail.
