I grew up in Seattle WA. At age 6 I unwillingly began receiving classical piano lessons from my mom. It took many years before playing the piano became a source of any kind enjoyment. A likely factor for the turnaround was when girls began to notice.

I grew up in Seattle WA. At age 6 I unwillingly began receiving classical piano lessons from my mom. It took many years before playing the piano became a source of any kind enjoyment. A likely factor for the turnaround was when girls began to notice.
Despite all the lessons, scales and arpeggios, reading sheet music was not my strong point. Instead I much preferred to create and develop my own musical ideas. Soon I was writing songs and music became a passion. Despite the music background I went on to graduate from college with a degree unrelated to music.
However the desire to write and perform led me to pack it up and head to LA to pursue a music career. Despite the fact that it did not work out as I expected, it was a fantastic experience filled with great memories and friends. After walking away for a while, and thanks to a supportive family I have been able to continue making music.

While in Southern California I was able to meet some wonderful players and form the 'Reggie Grantham Band'. We performed at all the showcase venues we could, and created a pretty cool sound. We self produced a couple of albums. Of course the first one was cobbled together in various houses & garages on what would not be considered 'Class A' equipment.
- The first album was titled "The Shirt Off My Back". We released to cassette tape. Just in time for CD's to completely kill the cassette tape market.
- Our second album was recorded at my now friend Steve Forster's Studio SF Audio. It is titled 'Love Interest'. Eventually this was pressed to CD, but is now available on most steaming services
Unfortunately that was about as far as we could get. Eventually I returned to Seattle and focused my energy on career and family. After some time I decided to record a solo piano album:
- The piano album is called 'Daybreak', and goes great with that Sunday morning morning cup of coffee. It was also pressed to CD and is available on most streaming services.

Currently I am writing and recording when I can. Composing new tunes, exploring different genres, producing for songwriters and providing on-line content.
I have released a new 10 song album called Agua Fria. It is a bit of a departure for me musically. Electronic grooves that add some dimension to the background.
