As singer and songwriting/production partner in the seminal electro-rock band God Lives Underwater, David Reilly spent the better part of the last decade in the trenches as a producer and touring artist, first signed by Rick Rubin to American Recordings in 1993. American went on to release GLU's self titled EP and debut album "Empty", which spawned minor radio hits "No More Love" and "All Wrong", the former as a single from the soundtrack to the hit Keanu Reeves film "Johnny Mnemonic". GLU then made a move to 1500 /A&M, who went on to release their breakthrough second full-length "Life In The So Called Space Age", which generated a massive hit, "From your Mouth". The single enjoyed excessive play on alternative rock stations and MTV alike, and saw the band hitting the road for several years of mostly sold out shows alongside notable artists including KMFDM, Korn, Stabbing Westward, Life of Agony, Filter, Far, Type O Negative, Genitorturers, Deftones, No Doubt, and Sublime, playing virtually every radio festival in the country, and all the while building a huge, rabid fanbase. In addition to his extensive repertoire as a writer and vocalist, David is a multi-instrumentalist and producer with extensive synthesis/sampling knowledge, and with his GLU partner Jeff Turzo stayed busy with other production and remix projects as well, including remixes for Skinny Puppy, Rob Zombie, and Messiah, and organizing and contributing to 1998's "For the Masses: A Tribute To Depeche Mode", which would also feature tracks from Deftones, Smashing Pumpkins, Failure, The Cure and Monster Magnet. 2004 will see the release of GLU's much anticipated "Up Off The Floor", tentatively set to be released worldwide in June on Megaforce/Locomotive. The new year will also see David's return to touring and his first foray into recording as a solo artist with the Summer release of the INSIDE EP.Contributor organisation: davidreillymusic.com
