Dan Reeder Listening Event

Dan Reeder will be at The Lab for a listening event and meet and greet prior to his performance in The Green Room later this evening. Join us 5:30-7pm in The SoundRoom. FREE to attend.

Dan Reeder, Oh Boy Records’ longest signed artist besides John Prine, is a self-sufficient artist in every aspect of his work. The cover of each one of his albums bears artwork he created himself. He’s built a majority of the instruments you hear. From guitar pickups to microphones, preamps and mixers. He’s built steel string guitars, electric guitars, banjos, drums, basses, cellos, violins, clarinets, and even a saxophone (note from Dan: “I’ll never do that again”). He constructed his own recording computers with fanless power supplies and solid-state drives to keep them quiet — and before those were around, stored the computer in an old refrigerator. Each note you hear was carefully crafted and individually manifested — the melodies, the harmonies, the instrumentation, the recording and mixing process (with the exception of a few minor mastering adjustments).
