John Reynolds Bio:

John Reynolds from Los Angeles, CA

John Reynolds, grandson of silent screen star Zazu Pitts, started learning
banjo at age 11 from string master David Linley, who worked with the likes
of Jackson Brown and Ry Cooder. He picked up the guitar on his own and later
took instruction from George Smith, an orchestra guitarist who regularly
filled in for Eddie Lang.

John really got his chops working at Disneyland, in an eight-piece band of
giant Woozles (from Winnie the Pooh) and in the Golden Horseshoe (his first
job out of high school).

John's musical heroes include Eddie Lang & Joe Venuti, Eddie Peabody, Allen
Ruess and, of course, Django Reinhardt.

Through the years, he and his brother, washboard virtuoso Ralf Reynolds,
formed dvarious Dixieland and jug bands, including the Titanic Jazz Band and
The Rhythm Rascals.

In 1985, John had the good fortune to back up Cab Calloway, playing with Don
Wolf's Rhythm Kings. From 1980-84, he toured Australia and Japan with a trio
called Mood Indigo. Then, with yet another band, The Palm Springs Yacht
Club, he really hit the big time, touring with The Smothers Bros., Julie 
Andrews, Andy
Williams and Bobby Shore.

When Janet Klein recorded her first album in '98, John supplied 
accompaniment.

John is also a veteran of Johnny Crawford and Dean Mora's bands. He
currently performs with ukulele player David Barlia under the title, "The
Bilgewater Brothers."
