Dan Reeder is a 70-year-old artist and musician who has spent the past three decades creating a unique blend of folk, art, and DIY innovation from his home in Nuremberg, Germany. Born in Louisiana and raised in California, Reeders work spans music, visual art, and homemade instrumentseverything from steel-string guitars and banjos to PVC trombones. Prior to a brief tour in 2024, Reeder hadnt played on his home soil in fifteen years, preferring to create quietly from a distancefar from the spotlight but never truly unseen. He now performs alongside his daughter, Peggy Reeder, whose harmonies and the pairs charming, humorous family banter are sure to captivate any audience.With a sound that combines the similar warm, weathered voice of Ted Lucas with playful, quirky lyrics, Reeder is an outsider artist who marches to the beat of his own drum. He is Oh Boy Records longest-signed artist after Prine himself, a relationship that began when Prine heard Reeders homemade demo and signed him to the label in the early 2000s. Reeders music is self-produced and meticulously crafted, with every note, instrument, and recording detail borne from his hands. Reeder has stayed true to his unconventional path, creating art and music on his own terms, often in solitude. His songsfrequently a mix of dark humor and whimsical insightcarry a distinct charm. Still, twenty years after John Prine first admired his work, Reeder is still having fun.
