Jonas Reingold is a fantastic bass player, producer and songwriter who started his career in local hardrock acts such as WIRE in his home town in the midwest of Sweden. He later studied music at the Malmö Academy Of Music for 4 years. In 1994 he joined a band called The Downtown Clowns. In 1995 Jonas recorded an all bass jazz album with Sweden Bass Orchestra, featuring living legend Danish jazz bass playeer Niels Henning-Orsted Pedersen. In 1996 he worked with Benny Andersson and Björn Ulveus of ABBA on their production "Kristina From Duvumala". Jonas formed the band MIDNIGHT SUN together with Pete Sandberg and Anders "Theo" Theander in 1996. Because of his unique skills in different genres he is a highly esteemed session bassist for recordings and touring as well. His respect as a producer has resulted in many offers for various albums through the years. Since Pete was busy doing his solo album "Push" during 1998, Jonas contacted some old and new friends to play some of his new material. This leads to the band REINGOLD and the recordings for their debut album „Universe“ started in late '98. Jonas is of course still a member in MIDNIGHT SUN but feels that he wanted to work with some other people on these songs. Jonas chose the brilliant vocalist Göran Edman and put Jaime Salazar (dr) and Marcus Jacobsson (git) as permanent members in the band but also prefer to have "guests" as well; Peter Espinoza (Majestic, Nasty Idols), Chris Palm (Midnight Sun) and Hempo Hildèn (Midnight Sun). Marcus Jacobsson is an old friend of Jonas since way back and is a session guitarist, a hired "gun", that has appeared on several productions in all genres. Jaime is still with his earlier band, BAD HABIT and FLOWER KINGS but has no problem combining these three quite different bands which are all known for their brilliant musicians. Göran has an excellent career with artists like Y.J Malmsteen, Brazen Abbot, Glory and now the Johansson Brothers behind itself to mention only a few. REINGOLD "Universe" is a great album with astonishing performances and plenty of good hardrock songs. To be lifted out particularly had for me „Glorified“, „Overloaded“ and „Sacrifice and Suffering“. Here you feel the influences of Malmsteen, Midnight Sun and the mentioned bands. But also the sad ballad „No More I Love You“ they have converted very well. Reingolds album has something to offer for everybody. It is a terrific mixture of rock, progressive, melancholy and freshness. Alone because of the known bands I would already recommend the album.
