Reggie Watts: A Multi-talented Artist

Reggie Watts is an internationally renowned Musician, Comedian, Writer, and Actor. He recently starred as the bandleader on CBS's "The Late Late Show with James Corden". Known for using his formidable voice, looping pedals, and vast imagination, Watts seamlessly blends music and comedy, delivering performances that are entirely improvised.

Recent Achievements

Recently, Watts was the DJ at the 2021 Emmy Awards, which saw a 15% ratings boost compared to 2020. His first Netflix special, "Spatial", was released to massive critical acclaim, with The New York Times lauding it as "a giddy rush of escapist nonsense" and dubbing him the most influential absurdist in comedy today. The A.V. Club described "Spatial" as "signature Watts", meaning it is alternately exhilarating, silly, exhausting, and transcendent. Exclaim! Magazine praised his performance as engaging, absurd, thoughtful, and, most importantly, wholly unpredictable.

Solo Performances and Tours

As a solo performer, Watts's unique brand of musical/comedy fusion has led to sold-out headlining tours in the U.S. and Europe. He has performed at festivals such as Bonnaroo, SXSW, Bumbershoot, Just For Laughs, Pemberton, and more.

WattsApp and Other Projects

In 2020, Watts released his own content app, WattsApp, offering a techno-savvy look into his life, work, and techno junk drawer. WattsApp features original content, including a show called "Droneversations", where Watts interviews guests while being filmed by drones, along with other entertaining content.
