REEVES GABRELS - Reeves
Gabrels, a Grammy-nominated guitarist/songwriter/producer best known for both
his work with David Bowie and his aggressive guitar style that combines the
visceral energy of rock, the harmonic sophistication of jazz, the emotional
honesty of blues and country, and an ear for the unusual. A furious cut-and-paster
in the studio and an evil genius of atonal improvisation on stage Gabrels
explores sonic extremes with a great, adaptive intuition for what each song
needs most. He shows that his limitless technical and compositional skills can
still shine without restraint.
Guitar Player's Editor In Chief, Michael Molenda says. "Gabrels is one of those
guitar players that, quite simply, redefine guitar craft a bona fide
21st-century guitar god who deserves massive amounts of Justin Timberlake-style
fame."
He will go down as one of the true originals in the guitar-hero pantheon, even
as his fusion of fretwork and computer processing questions and redefines that
instrument's very place in the rock canon. Among those who know him at all, he
is either loved or hated but never ignored; this alone guarantees his staying
power. You'll be hearing a lot more from him -- whether or not you know it's him
you're hearing.
Reeves has also contributed music for film work by famed director David Lynch,
and other bands and artists such as The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, Brian Eno, Ozzy
Osbourne, The Rolling Stones, Public Enemy and Natalie Imbruglia
