Lori Reid

In service to the sacred sound, Lori Reid believes music is to be felt rather than heard.

​

What began as a recording debut with 2003’s RADIO, developed into a 20 year residency as ⅓ founding member of an Alberta "super group" to a 2 album recording relationship with Colin Linden.

​

Reids' fate was sealed by a chance meeting at a small gig in Banff...The Fates ( Reid, Jenny Allen, Lin Elder) recorded and toured 3 albums as a group, Till We Have Faces in 2004, the live recording slam in 2006 and *Therapy *hitting #2 on the CKUA top 100 of 2008. The Fate's music continues to be re-released on their YouTube channel.

​

2012 saw Reid collaborate with Colin Linden following his Fates Therapy sessions, on her second solo release, Temperance Hotel. Featuring Linden on multiple instruments, including scoring and production duties, the album also featured Lin Elder, Willie Nelson's harmonica collaborator, Mickey Rapheal, and Nashville master craftsmen, Bryan Owings and Dave Roe. Temperance Hotel peaked at #5 on the Roots Report and received National airplay on public, commercial and satellite radio.

​

Most recently, Reid has been collaborating with Manitoba songwriter Heather Jean Jordan with their multi-genre duo The Evangelines, based in Banff.

After a move to Edmonton in the Spring of 2023, Reid now circles *the elements* and enjoys passionate collaboration in the Edmonton music scene, playing and working on this forthcoming album featuring The Rotting Matadors (Colin Linden, John Dymond, Gary Craig,) with special guests.
