Jim Condie - Scots-born guitarist, singer and songwriter - has achieved considerable success as a freelance accompanist, session player and studio musician. Condie's reputation in electric and acoustic blues/Americana/rock music has been earned through working alongside a huge range of performers, legends in their own time, ranging from Van the Man to Hercules the Bear, from Ali Farka Touré to Rab C Nesbitt, Sugar Blue to Louisiana Red, Mose Scarlett to Sam Brown, Tam White to Alan Black (my, what a colourful bunch!) - the list could go on forever! In addition, his session work for the BBC has included loads of soundtrack work, one of the best known being the theme from BBC tv's Rab C Nesbitt! He has been featured on albums by Amos Garrett, Tam White, The Dexters, the Rootsie Tootsie Band, The Soup Dragons, Mose Scarlett, Davie Paton, Curtis E Johnson, Cousti and Blueflint.

In 2002, building on his success behind other performers, and encouraged by fans and fellow musicians, Jim, at the ripe old age of 50 realised a long held ambition - the recording and release of his first solo CD, Distant Cousins. This blends his love of American traditional music with self-penned and contemporary songs and instrumentals that serve as a showcase for his talents on vocals, acoustic guitar, Dobro, mandolin, lap steel and bass. You can hear some of his current and previously unreleased material on his Reverbnation page.

Reece develeoped a taste for music early on after accidently stumbling upon the orginal pioneers of blues, soul, country and rock. soaking up as much as he could he began to write his own material where he would begin blend his faviourite stylings of music, and eventually aged 17 would be out performing live in venues close and far from home.

While traveling across the UK he picked up a nomination for The British Blues Awards young artist of the year in 2014 and has since been featured in sought after magazines such as Blues Matters, all the while supporting acts ranging from Chris Farlowe to the Human Leauge. In late 2018 he was played twice on the Iain Anderson show on BBC Radio, and has been continuing to hone his craft with every performance and each song he writes.
