STICK MEN
Featuring TONY LEVIN, PAT MASTELOTTO, MARKUS REUTER

TONY LEVIN – Chapman stick
MARKUS REUTER – touch guitar
PAT MASTELOTTO – drums

STICK MEN – Tony Levin and Pat Mastelotto, the powerhouse bass and
drums of the group King Crimson for a few decades, bring that
tradition to all their playing. Levin plays the Chapman Stick, from
which the band takes it¹s name. Having bass and guitar strings, the
Chapman Stick functions at times like two instruments. Markus Reuter
plays his self-designed touch style guitar ­ again covering much more
ground than a guitar or a bass. And Mastelotto¹s drumming encompasses
not just the acoustic kit, but a unique electronic setup too, allowing
him to add loops, samples, percussion, and more. Members of STICK MEN
have recorded on albums that sold over 200 million records worldwide
and all 4 individual members have played collectively in many
different projects in past 5 decades in over 90 countries worldwide.

TONY LEVIN – Born in Boston, Tony Levin started out in classical
music, playing bass in the Rochester Philharmonic. Then moving into
jazz and rock, he has had a notable career, recording and touring with
Peter Gabriel, John Lennon, Pink Floyd, Yes, Alice Cooper, Paul Simon,
Seal and many more. He has also released 5 solo CDs and three books of
photohraphy and poetry. In addition to touring with Stick Men, he is
currently a member of King Crimson (since 1980) and Peter Gabriel Band
(since 1977), and jazz bands Levin Brothers (with his older brother
Pete Levin) and L¹Image (with Steve Gadd, Mike Manieri, David
Spinozza, Warren Bernhard). Tony Levin is one of the most recorded
bass players in history of music, appearing on over 1000 albums, and
one of the most iconic and recognizable rock musicians in the past 5
decades. His popular website, tonylevin.com, featured one of the
web¹s first blogs, and has over 5 million visits.

PAT MASTELOTTO – Very rarely does a drummer go on to forge the most
successful career on the demise of their former hit band. Phil Collins
and Dave Grohl have managed it, so too has Pat Mastelotto, a self
taught drummer from Northern California, who has also been involved
with pushing the envelope of electronic drumming. Pat has spent a
lifetime jumping genres from pop, to prog, to electronica to world
music with ­ among others ­ Mr. Mister, XTC, David Sylvian, The
Rembrandts, Kimmo Pohjonen, and for the last 25 years with King
Crimson.

MARKUS REUTER – Markus is a composer, guitarist, and producer.
Initially trained as a pianist, he subsequently studied Robert Fripp¹s
Guitar Craft and learned to play the Chapman Stick, later moving onto
the U8 Touch Guitar. Reuter has re- leased several solo recordings and
worked extensively with other musicians. He is one of the core members
of the experi- mental band Centrozoon, is half of the duo Tuner (with
Pat Mastelotto) and was also a member of Europa String Choir. Reuter
has collaborated with Ian Boddy, Robert Rich, No-Man singer Tim
Bowness, and many others, and he has joined the new Devin Townsend ¹s
band. His new power trio TRUCE is recording the second album and will
be touring worldwide.
