Graham Reynolds

You've herded up 136 groundhogs and have them barking in key. Now you need the perfect musical matte, arrangement, strings – the whole nine yards. Call Graham Reynolds. Austin's DIY Philip Glass rose from the Clinton era crunk of the local indie music scene as the drummer/pianist of his Golden Arm Trio and crossed over with silent-film scores at the Alamo. He's since scored nearly every local art medium, from Ballet Austin to Richard Linklater's animated blade runner A Scanner Darkly. No one said you could substitute musicians for groundhogs!
