INTRODUCTION
Welcome to
Stuart-Reilly.co.uk, a website dedicated to promoting Stuart’s compositions to the TV /Film & Music industry -
or to anyone who is curious enough to find
themselves here!
BIOGRAPHY
Stuart’s interest in music
began at school age when he convinced his mum that he 'really' needed that guitar. He went on to play in several bands when
he lived and worked in South London from 1986 to 1998. It was during this time that Stuart embarked upon a
musical journey that gave him a solid grounding in songwriting and afforded him
the opportunity to work with Billy Kuy (Mike Berry & the Outlaws) and Brian
Parker (co-writer of Unit 4+2’s No1 hit “Concrete & Clay”). One of Stuart’s
compositions was also reviewed very favourably by Russell Ballard.
In mid 1998, Stuart withdrew
from the music scene when he emigrated to South Africa and took on the
responsibilities of fatherhood and husbandry! In 2000, Stuart returned to the
UK (with his family) and set about re-establishing himself as a composer.
The words that best describe Stuart's musical genre would be pop/rock,
melodic, accoustic, orchestral and ambient - with a dash
of electronica'. His writing style involves taking a simple concept, building it up, navigating it through different emotional
landscapes and then, either adding a twist, or coming back to the central theme.
Enjoy!
