My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 10/11/2005
Band Website: www.beeprepaired.com
Band Members: Live performances may contain at least one or more of the following musicians:

R.B. Reed - guitar/vox
Olie Eshleman - guitar/pedal steel
Matt Wexler - upright
Faustine Hudson - percussion

Sounds Like: "Yes, he's got an acoustic guitar, and yes, he writes his own stuff...but there's one thing that sets him aside from the rest of the troupe: his brilliant, yet modest ability to write deep, dark lyrics and make them sound even eerier with his old-timey warble"
-indieworkshop.com

"Reed executes gloomy lyrics with entertaining rhymes and imagery. And this juxtaposition hits you like a dry whiskey in a broken glass..."
"...bridges the gap between the pulp fiction of Raymond Chandler and the acoustic goth of Leonard Cohen."
