Reamonn was a German rock and pop band that is well known all over Europe. They recorded six albums and disbandoned in 2010.
In 1998, Rea Garvey left his band The Reckless Pedestrians and home town of Tralee, Ireland to go to Germany with not a lot money and a demo CD in his pocket. He put an ad into local paper Stockacher Anzeiger stating, "Singer requires band for recording and live shows." Mike Gommeringer (Gomezz) saw this ad and accurately assumed it must have been Garvey, whose original band he had once seen play live. The twosome met up and subsequently recruited Uwe, Sebi and Phil. Their first gig was played on New Year's Eve 1998 in Stockach.
In order to secure a recording contract, they set up a showcase at Logo, a small club in Hamburg, in front of 16 representatives from various record labels in 1999. The band was quickly offered several contracts, settling on signing with Virgin Records Germany. As of 2006 they are now releasing their music through Universal Music.
Their best known songs are: Supergirl and Tonight(2006).
In 2011, Rea started his solo career and as of 2018, released 4 albums so far: Can't stand the silence, Pride, Prisma and Neon. Rea continues to work with national and international artists like Kool Savas, Jam & Spoon, Paul van Dyk or Mary J. Blige.
In the past, he recorded a new version of "All good things come to an end" with Nelly Furtado.
For several German movies he provided solo tracks even before Reamonn disbandoned.
He regularely appears at a coach of the German Version of "The Voice" or "The Voice Kids".
Rea married in 2002 and together with their child, they live in Berlin.

Let your heart find the rhythm
Hold on, be still
Let your heart find the rhythm
You think sometimes that it's gonna go away
You think sometimes that it's real, but you're gonna pay
You count the minutes like you're flippin' on the lights, yeah
I know I'm livin' when you're lovin' on me, yeah
I know I give you what the others don't see, yeah
I open up like I'm bein' polite
If you ever wanna come inside
You know you gotta
Slow down, breathe in (oh)
Let your heart find the rhythm
Hold on (hold on), be still (hold on)
Let your heart find the rhythm
'Cause I'm not easy to love, I was ready to run
But you ever give up, no, I'm not easy to love
Slow down, breathe in
Let your heart find the rhythm
Ich hinterfrag' nicht, was wir tun
Hinterfrag' nur, wie ich tick'
Manchmal gerat' ich aus der Spur
Doch immer wartest du auf mich
Ihr Gelaber stört uns nicht, lassen's nicht zu
Wagen wir den Schritt
Ich bin es wert, genau wie du, es stimmt
Wenn du sagst, ich bin verrückt
Ich kann nicht anders, doch vertraue dir
Dass wir nicht das Vertrauen verlieren
Und das alles nicht übern Haufen werfen, was auch passiert
Ich weiß, auch wenn mal Dinge nicht harmonieren
Finden wir doch zurück und
Synchronisieren unsre Herzen wieder zum gleichen Rhythmus
Slow down, breathe in
Let your heart find the rhythm
Hold on, be still
Let your heart find the rhythm
Slow down, breathe in (oh)
Let your heart find the rhythm
Hold on (hold on), be still (hold on)
Let your heart find the rhythm
'Cause I'm not easy to love, I was ready to run
But you ever give up, no, I'm not easy to love
Slow down (slow down), breathe in (breathe in)
Let your heart find the rhythm
Let your heart find the rhythm
Let your heart find the rhythm
(Heyy, ohh) Heart find the rhythm
(Heyy, ohh, heart find the rhythm)
