Background notes
Archive material and source history
John Reid is a singer from Liverpool who came up through local pubs and clubs. He signed with Island Records and put out his first album, 'The Truth,' in 2006. His biggest moment came a couple years later with 'Crying Over You,' a ballad featuring Taio Cruz that got a lot of radio play.
That song and its follow-up, 'Still Crying,' are what most people know him for. The music is straightforward pop-soul, built around his voice and melodies about relationships. He's put out a few albums since, like 'Heartstrings' in 2008 and 'Phoenix' in 2016.
For live shows, he's backed by a band that includes Tom Wilson on guitar, Steve Hardy on bass, Matt Pearson on drums, and Emily Carter on keyboards. He's kept a lower profile in recent years, but those early 2000s songs still pop up on playlists.
