Lou Reed
(Performer)

A living legend in his own right, for more than 30 years the singer/songwriter/guitarist has been at the forefront of the music scene. His seminal group The Velvet Underground is still revered by fans and musicians around the world. As a solo artist, he has enjoyed a prolific career. His latest album, Ecstasy, has been heralded by critics as a "convergence of pure poetry, twenty-first century blues and the drive of primitive rock & roll beats."
