Artist Bio
If Nirvana and The Doors had a love child, who was then raised in the desertΒ taking hits of acidΒ with Frank Zappa,Β youβd likely end up withΒ a band that sounds as oddly unique as The Reed Effect.
Hailing from Toronto, and having spent the last several years proudly cutting their teethΒ in the scummiest venues north of the border, The Reed Effect have been warpingΒ minds with their lyrics, shakingΒ hips with their riffs andΒ assaultingΒ all five senses with an onslaught of progressively addictiveΒ rock hooks that pullΒ fromΒ grunge, metal and blues.Β Having been tapped as support for bands like Jeff Martin of The Tea Party, The Wild andΒ Die Mannequin, The Reed Effect have been leavingΒ their unique brand of stinkface-inducing, schizophrenicΒ rock lingering in the air of venues across Canada since day one.
Founding member and lead man Kirk Reed, along withΒ hisΒ brotherΒ Chris on bass and drummer Bryan Fontez form a rock n’ roll triumvirate that’sΒ built like a brick shit-house. With their new album “A Strange Curiosity” ready to drop later this year and the bar set higher than ever,Β the band has never been more proudΒ of the heavy grooves they’re about unleash.
If you’re into the kind of guitar riffs that scar you for life, bass lines that vibrateΒ your skullΒ and a drummer who hits soΒ hard he should be convicted of instrumentalΒ murder, do yourself a favour and check out The Reed Effect, like a solidΒ shit,Β you’ll be oddly satisfied.
