Reed

Thanks for stopping by...In Los Angeles, I played bass and guitar with musicians from bands like: War, Jethro Tull, Gino Vannelli, and Blues Image. While living in San Luis Obispo (about 3 hours north of LA on the coast), I played bass on some CD’s (one of which was a collective effort by several central coast artists to benefit the homeless). My dad was a sax player who worked with Sinatra and others in the 40s so my musical roots are in jazz but my passion is playing blues based rock and funk. My mom was born in Paris and I've had my share of South American influences, so I've been told my music has an eclectic mix of many styles. If you're not a musician and you're stopping by--I love people so I hope (if you're still reading) all is good in your world and you'll consider writing me as I enjoy meeting new people (and hearing from old friends too!). If you're a musician, you can read on about my gear (if you're into that...). I hope you are finding reasons to laugh out loud. Till next, peace and light.
