Bagatelle were formed in 1978 by drummer Walter (Wally) McConville along with bass player Ken O'Brien and guitarist John Doyle.

After leaving the group in the mid-1980s he moved to Savannah, Georgia and began a solo career. In this time he recorded an album called "Savannah Serenade" which featured much of Reilly's keyboards and vocals. In 1988 he was a finalist in the Irish heats of the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Lifeline". Reilly came back to arrive second in the event in 1990 with "Somewhere in Europe".

As a composer, Reilly returned to Eurovision in Rome in 1991 where his song "Could It Be That I'm In Love", performed by Kim Jackson, was placed equal tenth.
