Andrew Reeves
Reeves Records© is a completely independent record label founded in 2005 by Andrew Reeves to create, promote and distribute his music. "The sound he produces is reminiscent of classic late period Spacemen 3, but with a tattered West Coast Americana roots feel to it; big drone notes might fill the gaps but you’re always aware where this is coming from. His voice is mixed low and is sometimes a little out - it doesn't matter. A contaminated, Americanized John Cale might come close.
