Tim Reynolds

Profoundly talented guitarist Tim Reynolds has been cutting killer riffs and spooling rock & roll with funk and soul since the age of 12. Throughout the '90s he has slowly become recognized as one of the impeccable, highly skilled acoustic musicians in the areas of jazz guitar, bass, piano, sitar, mandolin, violin, and various instruments of ethnic percussion. He is an underrated master. Born in Germany, Reynolds was a military brat who spent his young life traveling across the United States, eventually settling in Charlottesville, VA. He joined various psychedelic rock groups, playing heavily into his influences of Carlos Santana, Jimi Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin. He formed TR3 in the late '80s, and later expanded his sound to the likes of Bob Marley, Nine Inch Nails, and Marilyn Manson. But Reynolds' biggest claim to fame came with his collaborations with Dave Matthews Band. He has guested on all Dave Matthews Band releases and joined them on countless tours across the globe. He and Dave Matthews released the double-disc album Live at Luther College in January 1999, and Reynolds separately issued a slew of solo albums: Stream (1993), Gossip of the Neurons (1996), Sanctuary (1997), and See Into Your Soul (2000). ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
