About Me |
|
| Reynold Pereira (XRey) was born and raised in Singapore. He now lives in Brussels, Belgium after spending some time in Paris.
He’s been singing since the age of seven and also learnt to play the guitar, bass and the harmonica. Up until today he has shared his blues with musicians and bands such as: Howlin’ Bill (Belgium), Clinton Carnegie, Steven Rufus, John Chee, Gary Tan, Heritage, (Singapore) David Giorcelli (Spain) and many others. He has also had the opportunity to share great moments of blues and meet people like James Cotton, Buddy Guy, Robben Ford, John Mayall, Coco Montoya, the late Michel Petrucianni and Paul Orta amongst others. XRey has also played in national and international clubs and festivals, such as the Segoufielle Rock and Blues Festival in Toulouse, France, The Maitrank Festival in Arlon, Belgium, the Hard Rock Café in Singapore, the Mezz Café in Breda, Ain’t Nothing But The Blues in London, UK, Mustang Café in Paris, Crazy Elephant in Singapore, Kid’s Rhythm & Blues Café in Antwerp, Belgium and The Bone in Dallas, Texas. To date, XRey has performed in almost 500 concerts. He has also performed in various television and radio programmes like Radio & Television Singapore (RTS), Radio Ridderkerk (Netherlands) and WOS Blues Studio (Gravenzande, Netherlands). At the moment he has two blues albums; the first, a four song demo recorded in Paris and more recently a full length all-original album called Déjà Vu which was recorded and mixed at Studio 338 in Brussels and mastered in Zen Mastering in San Diego, California. For the Déjà Vu album, he recorded with musicians like Saïd Karume, Patrick Pletinckx, Claude Hoffman, Mario Dragon, Jean-Marie Hammond and Jean-Philippe Sauvegeot. One of his songs has been featured in a cd compilation (Fiestajet) released in Belgium in 2006. |
