Bio
Tom Reynolds is a South London based session guitarist specialising in working closely with artists and producers to write emotive, suitable parts and create memorable hooks for their tracks. He is predominantly a blues player but draws inspiration from Indie-Rock, Soul, Funk, R&B, Pop and Folk which ensures a good level of versatility and creativity which comes through in his playing and composing.
He has a wealth of professional experience both performing in live settings with various bands and studio sessions having to write and record parts on the spot. His highlights include a headline tour with britpop band My Life Story in 2024 including two sold out shows at Oxford Street's infamous 100 Club and headlining Popfest in Cologne. Recently he travelled to Austin, TX to play multiple sets at SXSW with his latest Dream - Pop project, Korda Korder, throughout the festival. Korda Korder's first two singles have been played multiple times on BBC Radio 6 Music by Steve Lamacq and on Radio X by John Kennedy. He continues to work with various artists and bands playing many different styles and crafting well thought out, developed parts. In 2023 he was asked by renowned producer Pete Smith to spend three days recording at Homeward Studio in Hove to assist a BIMM masters graduate with recording three original tracks. Please refer to the 'music' section of the website for examples of these. Function work also remains an important part of his career with an abundance of professional experience playing with high class wedding bands such as The Itchy Feet House Band.
Tom plans to continue to tour with his current projects and grow his career as a session player both in the studio and on stage. Confirmed festivals in 2025 include SXSW (Austin), The Great Escape (Brighton), Live at Leeds, SXSW (London), Wilderness (Oxfordshire) and Shine On (Minehead).
