with prog musician Rob Reed
Robert Reed biography
Born in Ferndale, Wales, UK in 1968
Robert Reed needs little introduction, a talented multi-instrumentalist that has been creating delightful prog music since his early days with CYAN as well as the THE FYREWORKS, then forming the brilliant and still strong MAGENTA, as well as the recent KOMPENDIUM project featuring a busload of prog superstars (HACKETT, HARRISON, DONOCKLEY, DUNNERY, BEGGS, COLLINS, BARRETT, JAKSZYK, MITCHELL among many others).
A thorough multi-instrumentalist on both guitars, bass and a vast variety of keyboards, as well as adept on percussion when needed, REED is also a composer and producer of high repute. So when he considered the solo album option and figuring out that a true solo album is when you do everything yourself, Reed had the challenge of saluting one of his heroes, the mighty and legendary Mike OLDFIELD (also still going strong what with his recent "Man on the Rocks" release). "Sanctuary" is his first solo album and as such, he plays each and every instrument with obvious glee and mastery, fueled by the Tubular Bell inspiration.
