Described as “Reggie
Watts: Supercomedian. Faster than a speeding punchline” (Seattle
Times), Reggie Watts regularly performs to thrilled
crowds throughout the US and Europe. Combining looped
vocals created live on stage with his unique brand
of improvised comedy, Watts’ is a show definitely
not to be missed by comedy or music fans alike.
Reggie Watts began his career as a singer
in various bands in the early 1990s. Then he started
being himself. Crazy. Absurd. And the people laughed.
They're still laughing.

Ideas Will Change The World
In his unique sets, Reggie’s subjects range from
ancient history, technology, magic, spirit elves, dragons,
mythology and theology to pop culture. The music incorporates
hip-hop, trip-hop, 80’s pop alternative, nu-metal
and classical opera-- no two songs are ever the same. Reggie
loves to disorient and confuse people in the most entertaining
way possible.
An experience I would highly recommend. Very
unique and individual. A very talented man. Extreme,
hilarious and very entertaining.
