A vibrant mural titled “Rhythm Amongst the Stars” was unveiled in Spokane, honoring the late musician Quindrey “Drey” Davis, who died at 29 from leukemia in 2023. Created by artist Miles Toland after weeks of deep research and personal connection with Drey’s family and friends, the mural captures his joyful spirit and musical soul—complete with symbolic details like a gong and the Corona Borealis constellation. Painted over six days on a tough brick wall, it became a living tribute during this year’s Drey Day, shifting from music-only celebrations to a lasting legacy. Musicians, fans, and loved ones gathered to honor him, turning grief into community celebration—and ensuring Drey’s rhythm echoes forever in the heart of Spokane.
