Eric Reed

Born:

When you think of hard-driving swing, daring expression,sophistication and elegance in artistry, formidable techniqueand a thunderous sound, there are only a very small handfulof contemporary pianists you think of and one of them ismost assuredly ERIC REED. But don’t think of him as a justa pianist; Eric is one of his generation’s most advancedthinkers in music.

Born in the musically rich city of Philadelphia, PA. Eric grewup playing in his father’s storefront Baptist church, startingat the age of five: “My father was a minister but he alsoused to sing with a Gospel group in Philly called the BayState Singers. He is my earliest musical influence. I alsowas hit heavily by the sound of Christian and secular musicof the 1970s (most notably Edwin & Walter Hawkins,Andrae Crouch and James Cleveland). “ Soon after, youngReed was bitten by the Jazz bug after hearing recordings byArt Blakey, Ramsey Lewis and Dave Brubeck.
