Jack Bessant and Gary Stringer formed the band in Street, near Glastonbury . A short time later the duo moved to Cornwall and found a drummer and a guitarist there, but initially had no success. After moving to London , where they met their new drummer Dominic Greensmith, Bessant and Stringer decided to form the band Reef. After recording a few songs, the band toured in 1994 and built a fan base.
After a temporary separation, the band got together again at the end of 2009 and gave concerts again the following year.
