REG KIELTY
songwriter
Reg kielty is a singer / songwriter based in the north west of england. a veteran musician whose involvement in writing and performing stretches back to the 1970's when he was fronting an art rock band ‘Rubi lazer’ in his home town of preston lancashire. his main chance of making inroads into the “business” came and went in the late 1980's when he was managed by rock promoter and impresario phil mcintyre of Phil mcintyre entertainments. a number of approaches to the majors EMI and polydor at the time failed to materialize into anything and perhaps like many disillusioned others, he chose to dip out of the music business and focus on an already established career in mental health, working internationally in the USA and Australia as well as london. Later he completed a masters in Psychotherapy providing therapy to clients with a wide range of psychological difficulties but also specialising in trauma work including PTSD. His masters thesis was on The subject of songs - their personal meaning to people and how they might be used to help them get through diffiuclt periods in their life. throughout this period Reg Kielty continued to write and work creatively with friends. at the beginning of 2020, oddly coinciding with the start of the world wide covid 19 pandemic, he instigated the “True north'' project working with collaborators and friends (of whom more details below) and resulting in the album ‘Reimagine’.
