Welcome to Reider Records.
Who is Rehab Mama? The modern folk rock trio—Rehab Mama was created in Orange County on June 17, 2009... . (?:) Who is Andrew Reid? Andrew is an addiction specialist, a recording artist, and a drifter with a passion for writing. Thomas Andrew Reid was born in Fredericton, New Brunswick on December 24, 1971. Listening to dubbed Neil Young tapes while driving around the province in search of the perfect windsurfing spot is one of his most vivid memories. Andrew moved to Ottawa to attend Carleton University, where in 1993 he graduated with a Bachelor of Public Administration coupled in 1995 with a Computer Programmer Diploma from Algonquin College. With a love for travel and skills in systems analysis, Andrew accepted a position at Catapult Systems in Austin, Texas. In 1999—while surfing in San Diego—he suffered a spinal infarction which left him paralyzed from the bellybutton down. Always up for a challenge, in 2001 he became the Canadian National Handcycling Champion and 2002 recorded the first of two CDs with Champ Covington, I Can't Recall. Andrew wrote a real-time account of his drug problem called Keel Over & Die in 2005, then in 2007 graduated with a Master of Arts in Addiction Counseling from Hazelden Graduate School in Minnesota, followed by a treatise on the human condition titled Addiction: The Antithesis of Spiritual Growth in 2008. With plans to walk this year, Andrew continues the effort to rebuild his leg muscles. |
