Reeves Nevo

David Brandt, an alumnus of Clark University, sought his musical
fortune in Los Angeles, forming Reeves Nevo & the Cinch. They were
featured as the Prom Band at the end of Fast Times at Ridgemont High
(1982, Universal), playing their arrangements of "Life in the Fast
Lane" and "Wooly Bully". The group achieved a decent local following in
the early 80s, and members eventually went on to other known bands.
After releasing an album under his real name, Brandt passed up a
production deal with Westlake Audio, turned down an offer to perform
with the New Christy Minstrels, broke up the band and returned to his
East Coast roots. He's now a psychoanalyst and is married, with
children, and living happily in New Jersey where he continues to be
musically active.
