- Preston Reed
- Acoustic/ Blues/ Funk/ Jazz/ Rock
Drawing on blues, rock, funk and jazz influences among others Preston Reed's vast range of explosively original music will forever change your expectations of a guitarist. Reed has single handily reinvented acoustic guitar playing. First-time listeners find it impossible to believe that they're hearing just the one musician, in real time.
While never letting his extraordinary technique overshadow the beauty of his music, Reed engages the entire instrument, creating a rock/jazz rhythm section, melody line and chordal accompaniment simultaneously; hauling out an orchestra you never knew was hidden inside. At full tilt, his fingers, thumbs, fists and hands at once suggest a drummer, keyboardist, bassist and several guitarists at work. The word virtuoso doesn't even come close.
