I have just released a collection of previously recorded instrumental tunes called "With My Own Hands." These are Arrangements I did of some of my favorite songs as well as a few original compositions. You can find it at kylereidtunes.bandcamp.com

Check out the Videos section of the website for a couple of brand spankin' new videos! I posted my arrangements of "the Park" by Feist and "You Can Never Hold Back Spring" by Tom Waits. Leave a comment on youtube if you like them! 

Thanks so much!

Check out my new recording of "the Soon to Be ex girlfriend blues." It features cigar box guitar, harmonic through an altoids mic, drums, stomps and claps, and it was a lot of fun to record. 

I've also uploaded a new recording of my Cigar Box Guitar composition "A New Hymn." 

Enjoy!

 Hey guys,

Hey everyone!

Happy New Year! Welcome to the future, we've finally made it to 2011. I just posted some new videos to the website. One is a cover of "I will follow you into the Dark" that I did for a wedding last summer, and the other is one of my own songs that I performed for the Acoustic Oklahoma showcase. Check them out and have a great day!

 Hey everyone!

I've posted some new songs I recorded with the lovely and talented Laura Wiederhoeft of Off Boyd Jazz. We recorded versions of "Route 66" and "the Nearness of You." Enjoy the new tunes!



Also, just this summer I started teaching lessons at Sonder Music. It is a fantastic music studio that has a great approach and attitude to teaching music. Sonder Music is also very involved in the artistic scene here in Norman hosting Jams and other artistic events. So if you are interested in taking guitar lessons you should definitely check them out and come learn some riffs from me!

Be well!

Lions and Tigers and Panda Bears!!!

holy cow guys, Its been a long time since the Jonbear Fourtet got together to make some sweet music. But last night we got together and rocked the house! Jon B's house to be specific. Jon has spent the past year building a fantastic home studio and last night we got to try it out at practice. 

MIcrophone cables covered the ground like the thick vine of the rain forrest and the music was hot and thick. Tribal rhythms and rumbling bass were accompanied by the singing birds of the horn section. And directing the whole wild ruckus was the Bear himself, Jon B.

So here is a treat for all of you, it's a live recording we did of one of our live show favorites "Panda Bear." This song has become one of our favorites to play and one of your favorites to dance to, though it wasn't on our first album. 

Enjoy the tune, and I'll see you all later.

Hey Everyone! This is our last day in Austin and it's been a great trip. Big John has been a great. We're playing at the Saxon Pub this afternoon at 3pm, so come check it out if you're in the area.

So the photo i've posted is of a quarter that my sister gave me that had been flattened by a train in Norman, OK. I thought it was a great gift and liked it so much that I took it down to the Wild Hare Beadery and Reese helped me make it into a necklace. So big thanks to my sister Sarah, and to Reese for my new trinket. 

Take it easy everyone and I'll be seeing you all back in Norman tonight.
