Martial I saw Bob's quartet in Glasgow. The band was fantastic. Their music is accessible yet still very much in the tradition of Jazz with plenty of energy and emotion. My wife does not listen to jazz, but she had a great night. Bob Reynolds music is really generous.

davescheffler- Nice to find another artist writing structured melodic tunes. Very fluid composition.....they just kind of merge with my experience of time at the moment. davescheffler.bandcamp.com Favorite track: Moving Pictures.

stereocrown This album has groove, catchy melodies, a bit 80's vibe, great production and a saxophone sound I really like! Favorite track: Until The Next Time.

about

The concept for this album was to take the spontaneity of what this band does live, bring it into the studio, and build a sonic landscape for it that felt rich and wide and reminiscent of pop & rock music that’s influenced us. This album was also, for me, about experimenting with songcraft. It's the first time I've collaborated with band members on the songwriting process. For songs like “Runway,” “Wash Over Me,” “Until The Next Time,” and “Moving Pictures,” I was trying to blur the line between improvisation and composition in a way I haven't done on a record before. This whole album was a search for opportunities to explore territories I enjoy as a soloist in other groups. Often they're different from the places I gravitate to as a composer. Collaborating with this team was a much-needed breath of fresh air for me. Like all albums, this is an experiment in documenting how I hear and play music right now. Runway captures ideals I strive for as an improviser with elements I enjoy as a listener. It feels like something fresh that’s been there all along. I'm excited to share this with you and I hope you enjoy listening to it.
