In 2001 Draper recorded her debut LP Ricochet with producer/indie music icon Kramer (Low, Galaxie 500, Urge Overkill, Lou Reed). Their partnership continued with her next three LP's: 2002's Snow White Trash Girl, 2003's Patchwork, and her debut LP with Planting Seeds Records, One Two Three Four met rave reviews. In 2007 she co-produced her next LP Keepsake with Major Matt (Olive Juice Music) and In 2009, Draper returned with her sixth LP (Planting Seeds Records), called Bridge and Tunnel which was produced by Brad Albetta (Martha Wainwright, Teddy Thompson).
