About Me |
|
| GOLDEN ARM TRIO is an Austin, Texas based band led by composer, bandleader, pianist and drummer Graham Reynolds. Graham and the group constantly work in theater, dance, film, concert halls, and nightclubs.
THE BAND is a loose collective of which Graham is the only permanent member with some outstanding musicians as regularly featured additions (see band members). The band has toured throughout the United States and Europe and has released two critically acclaimed CD's.
FILM scores include feature films, dozens of short films, animated shorts, and more than 20 silent films. Film collaborators have included Richard Linklater, Steve Collins and Luke Savisky. This summer includes the score for Richard Linklater’s “A Scanner Darkly”, starring Keannu Reaves.
PERFORMANCE highlights include a live appearance on NPR’s Talk of the Nation and a night at the Kennedy Center. The eclectic nature of the band has led to double bills ranging from Ken Vandermark to The Sea and the Cake to Merle Haggard guitarist Redd Volkeart.
COMPOSITIONS by Graham Reynolds include four symphonies, two operas, a violin concerto, more than a dozen one movement string quartets, and countless chamber music pieces. The collaborative 20-CD Box Set “The Golden Hornet Project”, was chosen as a “Top Ten CD’s Under the Radar” by Rolling Stone.com. Golden Arm Trio also won Best Orchestral Album from Kansas City Pitch Weekly.
THEATER ranging from recorded incidental music to fully scored musicals with live accompaniment on more than a dozen productions. Awards include the Frederick Lowe Music Theater Award, Austin Critics’ Table, and B. Iden Payne. Graham is the resident composer with Salvage Vanguard Theater and a company member with the Rude Mechs.
