US DATES FOLLOW STANDOUT PERFORMANCES AT
SECRET POLICEMAN’S BALL, TED, SXSW
Reggie Watts, internationally renowned musician/ comedian/ vocalist/ beatboxer, announces a headlining US tour this May. The NY-based artist who wows audiences with his improvised performances will be bringing his unforgettable live show to select cities across the States this Spring. Using only his formidable voice and looping pedals, each dynamic Reggie Watts performance is a one-of-a-kind mix of amazing music and from the hip comedy created on the spot, never to be repeated onstage again. Pre-sales start this Thursday(DC) and Friday (all other dates). Ticket links available at http://reggiewatts.com/info/upcoming/
A talent like no other, Reggie’s ability to blend and blur the lines between music and comedy makes each show a unique experience and thrills audiences around the world. As a performer at the Secret Policeman’s Ball, Reggie recently shared the stage with John Stewart, Coldplay, and Mumford and Sons. After his unique set at the highly regarded TED Conference in early March, Reggie received a standing ovation. Reggie performed a slew of packed out shows at SXSW, including a stand out set at Jack White’s Third Man Records showcase. Conan O'Brien handpicked Reggie as his tour opener for the entire sold out North American tour where Reggie left audiences slack jawed, and Reggie has since made numerous appearances on Conan. Reggie more recently joined LCD Soundsystem as special guest on the final NYC shows and he can be seen in the new documentary “Shut Up And Play The Hits.” Reggie is also the resident one-man bandleader on the new IFC comedy series “Comedy Bang! Bang!” which premieres Friday, June 8th (10pm EST).
For fans everywhere, Reggie created an original soundtrack for the Ridley Scott cult classic "Legend," now available for free download. The 1:31 long soundtrack was created on the fly by Reggie using his voice, looping devices, three synthesizers and various effects to make a strangely beautiful and humorous original score as the film silently rolled at The Roxie during SF Sketchfest. The soundtrack made its world premiere at SXSW to a sold out house. Download it free at http://www.facebook.com/reggie.watts
