Portrait of Marcus Reid playing acoustic guitar in low light

Music On the timetable at Meridian

Marcus Reid

Gigging guitarist for twenty years, session player before that. Runs the ensemble and the songwriting circle — bring a song, leave with a better one.

Marcus has played guitar professionally for twenty years — sessions in London, then touring with two bands — and teaches the way rehearsals actually work: play first, talk about what just happened, play it again better.

He runs the Guitar Ensemble and the Songwriting Circle. The ensemble's end-of-term gig is a real booking in a real venue, and the circle's rule is that every song gets played in full before anyone is allowed an opinion.

On the record

The Guitar Ensemble plays a public end-of-term gig every term — families and friends welcome.
