The Thinking Reeds is the musical vehicle for singer-songwriter Iain Kelly and acts as a pole from which to fly the ragged flag Dragged screaming into the world in Sheffield, England, he has not yet stopped. Music quickly became the magic carpet on which to escape and he continues to tap, hit, plonk & bellow in order to survive. Inching slowly towards a more personal and uncompromising style the recent recordings communicate much about the journey with a return to a more organic sound. A Sailor Me During summer 2005 The Thinking Reeds took up residency amongst the trees and critters of the English county of Lincolnshire. Here they learned to identify bird song and stayed warm by burning the troubles and angers collected on the long voyage. They also unpacked their crumbling recording devices, known collectively as the “Rec-O-Maticâ€. The faded heart was unwrapped and placed firmly on the sleeve. With the help of Maverick record producer Lance Thomas the songs became an album. With the instruments in the Parlour, the machines in the Butler’s Pantry and a well stocked drinks cabinet in between, the journey was recorded.
