Blake Sakamoto was the keyboard player for Dan Reed
Network.
Said to be the quiet guy in the band, Blake was the
last to join, replacing Rick DiGillonardo.
Blake's keyboard riffs added a colour and another
level to Dan Reed Network. Sometimes in the background filling in
the gaps, and at other times the core of the song.
Blake's rich layers of keyboards washed across and
through Dan Reed Network's songs.
And on stage, the long-haired keyboard player was
far from quiet - dancing away and screaming out the background vocals.
