Ben Reece on SoundBetter

I have just moved to Berlin from Seattle, USA to experience performing music for an entirely new set of ears. Music is my life and I intend to keep it that way by balancing my own original band, singing and playing cover songs, jazz gigs, solo classical gigs as well as any studio work I can get my hands on.

I am completely self taught and have essentially put myself through a sort of D.I.Y. homeschool Juilliard through countless hours of transcribing (jazz, rock, pop, classical), studying sheet music for any instrument I can get my hands on and writing and performing in a multitude of original and cover acts. I am perfectly at home reading a chart note for note, comping chords with or without direction, interpreting a song in my own manner, following specific directions or soloing. I understand the importance of being an ingredient in the entire sonic "sandwich" and am not the type of player to try to take things over. If it is a unique flavor you seek for your recording I can absolutely deliver. That is my ace in the hole.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Terms Of Service

As I am without recording gear I will need to be coming to your studio to get the work done. My services are finished when you're happy. Additional travel costs may be necessary.

Gear Highlights
  • The only instrument I brought with me to Germany is my precious old custom built strat. I am not a gear junkie and am perfectly capable of playing on any guitar or bass that is available.
