There are multiple artists that have used the name Reel: 1) Reel are the duo of V and E, formed in 1996, and hailing from London, Ontario, Canada, they started collaborating together to make their Poptronic-rock sound. In 1997 reel released its first C.D. entitled “Free As Air” and began playing small clubs and venues. The following two years would find reel playing larger venues and opening for major and international acts as their second disc “Soaring” was released. In 2000 V and E took time to record other groups, and worked in their commercial studio while experimenting on their own creative project which would be released independently in 2006, this time worldwide. The project is “Escape From America”, already available at itunes and distributors all over the world. 2) Reel or Real is the name the British band Feeder went by before calling themselves Feeder. 3) Reel is a Russian world music band, based in Russian folk and traditions.
