Reddick, 41, who currently stars on the Fox series Fringe, is no stranger to music, having attended the prestigious Eastman School of Music, where he studied classical composition.
Reddick, who plays piano, always wanted to be a musician, but the acting jobs came first, which allowed him to take care of his family.
