Reggie Watts is an internationally renowned Musician/Comedian/Writer/Actor who most recently starred as the bandleader on CBSs The Late Late Show with James Corden. Using his formidable voice, looping pedals, and his vast imagination, Watts blends and blurs the lines between music and comedy, wowing audiences with performances that are 100% improvised. He was recently the DJ at the 2021 Emmy Awards, which saw a 15% ratings boost from 2020. Watts first Netflix special Spatial released to massive critical acclaim, with the New York Times calling it a giddy rush of escapist nonsense and dubbing Watts the most influential absurdist in comedy today. The A.V. Club described Spatial as signature Watts, meaning its alternately exhilarating, silly, exhausting and transcendent, and Exclaim! Magazine called his performance engaging, absurd, thoughtful and, most importantly, wholly unpredictable. As a solo performer, Watts brand of musical/comedy fusion has led to sold out headlining tours in the U.S. and Europe, including festivals such as Bonnaroo, SXSW, Bumbershoot, Just For Laughs, Pemberton and more. In 2020, Watts released his own content app called, WattsApp, a techno-savvy look into his life, work, and techno junk drawer. WattsApp has all original content including a showcalled, Droneversations where he interviews guests while its filmed by drones along with other fun content. In 2010, Watts released his debut comedy special, Why Shit So Crazy? on Comedy Central Records, and is now available to stream on Netflix. Why Shit So Crazy?featured Watts in live performances at New York venues such as Galapagos, The Bellhouse, and Le Poisson Rouge, bookended with brief sketches and music videos. Later that year, at the invitation of Jack White, Watts recorded Reggie Watts: Live at Third Man Records which was released in limited edition vinyl. In 2012, Watts recorded his second comedy special, Reggie Watts: A Live At Central Park, which was released by Comedy Central. Reggies memoir, Great Falls, MT will be published on October 17 th 2023 by Penguins highly curated Tiny Reparations imprint. Watts was born in Germany, raised in Montana, and currently resides in Los Angeles.
