A gifted songwriter & guitarist, Reno also sings, plays keyboards, bass, drums, & other instruments although he does not like to say he is a multi-instrumentalist. "I am a guitarist & songwriter who can sing". "The other instruments are fun & I can play them, but prefer what I like & do best" With many Rock & Roll war stories in the years he has played music all over the US., & all the ups and downs of being a musician, Reno prefers to stay focused on the present & the future, not the past. "The Legend Heart project is the only one that has ever given me the feeling of doing real music my own way, with the freedom of expression, helping & entertaining people, & without the deception, corruption & plastic falsities that exist in certain areas of the music industry" Reno, much like many entertainers, feels too much energy is wasted on personal lives & such, regarding celebrities & entertainers, almost entirely from media entities, & not enough on the talented works that are generated from them. "When audiences cheer because you did a great cover, it's a good feeling, but it pales in comparison to the feeling you get, when the cheers are for your original songs".
Everyone in Legend Heart agrees that being & staying original & true independent is the key to being a truly great artist. Reno's goal, along with fellow band mates, is to help people in need, all over the world, through the music & their ongoing charitable efforts & support. I love everyone in Legend Heart, and that is what inspires good things to come". Reno's writing talents for the rock based sound of the band also include flavorings of classical, jazz, progressive, blues, Metal, & folk, to name a few. The result being, unique original music for their audience, through their CD'S & live performances, helping Legend Heart in their efforts to make the world a place of Peace, Love, & Song.
