Reni (musician)

Reni with The Stone Roses in 2012 Alan John "Reni" Wren (born 10 April 1964 in Manchester) is an English rock drummer and member of The Stone Roses.

His laid-back style of complex, off-beat rhythms was influential in bringing about the blend of indie and dance music which formed much of the Madchester sound centred on Manchester. He is considered by many musicians, producers and journalists to be the best drummer of his generation.The Guardian, June 2016, Music Blog

During his time with The Stone Roses, Reni could be easily identified by the now-iconic bucket hat that he often wore. Following his mysterious departure from the band in 1995, he fronted The Rub as singer and guitarist from 1998 to 2001, and played several low-key shows but split without releasing any material. He also participated on his ex-fellow Stone Roses' bandmate, Ian Brown's debut album.

After a long industry hiatus, he re-emerged on the music scene with the reformation of The Stone Roses in October 2011. After the band's apparent final show at Hampden Park in Glasgow, Scotland in June 2017, he has since returned to obscurity, running a property business with his wife. Provided by Wikipedia
