Bio:
Geoff Reacher
(Click on the photo to download a larger, high-resolution version of it)
A relentless recombinator and savvy songwriter, Geoff Reacher has been
chasing a defiantly idiosyncratic electro-country vision for about fifteen
years now. His Orange Twin debut is an LED-illuminated haze of caustic,
beat driven hallucinations about girls and death soaked in classic
country, pre-war blues, experimental electronics and rap.
Geoff maintains a strict ethic of live performance and real-time
sequencing whic integrates his influences into a raw, immediate whole.
His sound is unprecedented: intense, personal and completelt distinct from
projects of similar eclecticism played by full bands or put together
by asynchronous multi-tracking. His arrangements are largely reinvented
during each performance, which keeps the shows jumping and the crowds
coming back.
Geoff escaped from a small Texas town, lived for seven years in New York City
(where he took fingerpicking lessons from folk/jazz icon and Dylan mentor
Dave Van Ronk), stayed a while in Athens, GA, and currently resides in Austin, TX.
