Reg's clever and imaginative lyrics have earned him the title of "Master Storyteller" (PennyBlack Music) and led Mike Harding to introduce him onto the stage of The Royal Albert Hall as "one of the finest singer-songwriters this country has produced". Whether it's a village hall or the Albert Hall, Reg brings to the stage a collection of extremely beautiful songs, performed with humour and depth, and sung with the voice of an angel. Reg has that rare gift of being able to touch people, through his songs and performance, on a really human level. His words and music paint pictures that remain with the listener long after the song has been sung.

Reg first emerged onto the acoustic music scene in the 1980s with The Panic Brothers and has, over the years of touring and playing solo as well as with many other acclaimed artists, developed a style that as Pete Townshend says "allows the listener to embrace the whole breadth of his work over many years without distraction… he sings in the neutral accent of an Englishman who travels the entirety of the British Isles"

I saw Reg last month some weeks ago at a small local venue and thoroughly enjoyed the evening. After listening to his CD a few times since then, it occurred to me that he reminds me very much of Paul Simon. Or Paul Simon sounds like Reg.

I also think the influence of Leonard Cohen is there too -

Martin Carthy has described Reg as " ... a mighty songwriter and an equally great guitarist"

Reg came to NZ in January and we saw him at the Auckland Folk Festival. I just love his song about the violin from the Titanic.
The Band played Sweet Marie
