De Vries is the son of Dutch parents, but was born in the former Dutch colony now called Indonesia.
De Vries played in bands such as The Rocking Sensation Boys, The Daggers, The Firebirds (later called The Fire Devils). These bands were part of the so-called 'Indorock' wave: Indonesian rock & roll, tremendously popular in 'pre-Beatles' The Netherlands.
However, Rein de Vries had his biggest hits under his own name, most notably Blonde Baby Doll (a 1959 Dutch-language version of Cliff Richard's 'Living Doll', recorded by De Vries with Rene and his Alligators as his backing band) and Patsy (a Dutch-language version of Dickey Lee's 'Patches').
Rein de Vries retired from the world of music and lives in Southern France.
