June 4, 2008 - Visit the new Cory Reese Blog for peak into all the things you never knew you wanted to know about the insane life that a piano player living in Utah, who has three kids, who has terrible seasonal allergies, who listens to talk radio may lead.

(By the way, piano tracks are done for a new CD that should be out in the next couple months. I'll keep you updated.)

April 6, 2008 - I have survived a month-long whirlwind tour of Mexico, California, and Texas, and am now gearing up for the benifit concert later this week in St. George which will be a fun show. Lisa Larson from The Spectrum wrote a great story you can see here about the concert. I have also been in the studio over the last few months working on a new CD, more details to come. In the CD player today: Jackson Browne's Solo Acoustic Volume 2. See you Friday night at the concert!

January 25, 2008 - Happy New Year! The Reese clan had a great Christmas and added to our family: a Welsh Terrier puppy we named Dwight (fans of The Office will recognize his name).

I also have a confession to make: I am now able to admit to myself that I am a Guitar Hero addict. I have to make occasional trips to my brother-in-law's house where a Wii resides to get my fix. Guitar Hero will likely go down in history as the most profound and important creation of the 21st century. In the CD player today: Matthew West's new CD "Something To Say". Here's to a great 2008!

December 4, 2007 - It was great to meet so many of you over the last few weeks out playing the piano. Truth be told, by the end of December I have played the piano so much that just the thought of playing a song gives me the dry heaves. The very sight of a piano makes me nauseous. Allow me an analogy. I love candy. I love it. I love it so much that a few years ago I bet my wife that I could eat a 10-pack of Almond Joys and a 10-pack of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in the same setting. I got half way done before I started to sweat cocoa and surrendered. Some times you can get too much of a good thing. Fortunately, me and the piano are able to be friends again after a few weeks of taking a break in January. Pass the Almond Joys. Mmmm.

November 2, 2007 - Another swell review rolled in on You Will Soar from the New Age Reporter! Check out the Press page to see this one. We're excited to announce free shipping on all orders until December 31st. Time to stock up on Christmas presents! In my CD player lately.....Join The Parade by Marc Cohn. Stunning.

September 16, 2007 - There has been an amazing response to the new album. There was also a great review from Solo Piano Publications that can be viewed from the Press page. Albums getting frequent spins in my CD player lately:

Brett Dennen - So Much More
Matthew West - History
Amos Lee - Supply and Demand
Now those are some good tunes!!! You'll check them out if you know what's good for you.

June 26, 2007 - You Will Soar is finally released! You can listen to clips HERE. This album is really years in the making. I have been working on original songs for around three years during the time I had released KEYS To Billy Joel, Silent Night, and Witness. The disc features original music with the addition of cello accompaniment by Steven Sharp Nelson. I am so sure this music will give you goose bumps that I'm willing to guarantee it! That's right. If this music doesn't knock your socks off you send it back and you get your money back. No questions asked. No guff. I'm that confident. Keep an eye on the website for frequent updates. Enjoy!!!

I'm looking forward to the concert coming up on December 18th; it should be fun. I've been listening to Paul Cardall's new CD "Christmas Hymns" a lot lately.

March 13, 2004 — Hello! I hope everyone has had a happy New Year. In southern Utah it is starting to get warm, and 110 degree days are just around the corner! Right now I am working on a CD of popular Christian hymn arrangements which may be out sometime this year. Also, keep an eye on the web page for concert dates over the summer as well as other new additions soon to come. Best wishes!

July 16, 2002 — Hello! It has been an exciting few months for me. I signed a distribution deal with a company called Inspired Ideas who will be placing my CDs in stores across the country. I am also re-releasing "Moment of Peace" with a new cover, though it is the same music. I have been spending countless hours writing music since "Moment of Peace" was released, and will soon be ready to release the second CD which will be titled "Heart To Heart." I am shooting for the end of August. The CD is recorded, and is by far the best music I have ever written. There are about half the songs that have an addition of other instruments which really adds to the music. I will give you a more concrete date as things progress. Thanks for your support!
