Scott Reyns is an artist/producer who has been creating original industrial pop/rock music under the moniker Stormdrain since the mid-90s. Co-writers and/or live band members, past-present: Chris Garber, Oliver Marsh, Jason Silva, Ninos Oshaana, Steve Molinari, Kevin Allen, Don Jasper.

In 95-98 the act released various demos, played select live performances and entertained some label interest at both independent and major levels however signed no offers, partially due to differences within the band. Afterward Stormdrain continued to release demos and perform live, then took a break until returning in late 2004 to independently release "The Immovable Objection," its first commercially available record.

To date, Stormdrain's live appearances have kept to Bay Area venues (e.g. The DNA Lounge, Cactus Club etc.) mainly playing supporting or opening slots for other industrial/goth acts (e.g. Imperative Reaction, 16volt, Diatribe, Switchblade Symphony, Deathline International etc.).

In the wake of shows played in 06-07 internal differences again sent Stormdrain eventually back into a state of general remission. Reyns is currently "tinkering on and off," experimenting with various works in progress while contemplating where to direct his musical energies both creatively and business-wise.
