Hi
Ive decided to plunge into the new
world of crowd-funding.
If youre not familiar with
crowd-funding, its sort of like
pre-ordering an album...but with various
perks available to those who
contribute to the crowd-funding
campaign.
Why am I doing this?
Being a truly independent musician has
always made it financially challenging for
me to both release music and get myself
out on tour to play live for you
all. With crowd-funding, fans
themselves have taken the place of the old
music business model of big corporate
record labels.
Fans are now directly supporting the
artists they care about.
The crowd-funding platform makes it
possible for me to reach out directly to
my fans and friends everywhere in the
world to build support around a particular
project in this case, my new album
and a global tour to bring the music to
you live. This is where you come
in.
My Indiegogo campaign has just gone live!
It's over at Indiegogo.
I need you to support the campaign either
by contributing for a perk or by
contributing any amount using the big pink
contribute button...and by
sharing the campaign through your social
networks: Facebook, G+, Twitter, LinkedIn,
or any other network you are on, and
through email to friends.
As a survivor of the old music
business, I took a long hard look at the
idea of doing this before finally deciding
to go for it. All of my research has
shown crowd-funding to be both a rewarding
experience for fans and a fantastic source
of support for independent artists like
me. I hope youll have a look at
my campaign, check out the perks, and give
it your support.Thanks so much, and see
you out there :^)
Your faithful guitar player.

Latest release
"With Spirit, though, Reed got much
more personal, much more approachable,
more like a classic jazz guitarist... a
more conventional approach and the music
itself changed from the fiendishly well
worked out to a largely conversational
song form." - Rob Adams, The
Herald
"...the dreamy, jazzy mood is suggested
by titles such as "Gershwin" and "Sultry
Wes"... Interestingly, electricity brings
out the openness and elegance of his
playing." - Mike Butler, Metro
UK
"His beautifully articulated melodic
explorations are beguiling, and the
recorded sound is crystal clear." - Kenny
Mathieson, The
List
