Mike Reeb is a full-time touring musician from Indianapolis, Indiana. Throughout the Midwest, Mike has shared the stage with several notable musicians, including Alejandro Escovedo, Joe Pug, Sleeping at Last, Bill Mallonee, Pete Krebs, Switchfoot, Denison Witmer, Jeremy Messersmith, Elsinore, Derek Webb, Tristen, Company of Thieves, and Kink Ador. In the Chicago area, he has taken the stage at Martyrs, Schubas Tavern, Elbo Room, The Double Door, Uncommon Ground, Subterranean, The Beat Kitchen, and Fitzgerald’s. In 2010, one of Mike’s original songs was also featured in the movie Janie Jones, starring Abigail Breslin.
Mark Thornton of the Chicago Tribune writes, "He keeps drawing positive reviews and kind comparisons to musical legends. Names like Dylan and Springsteen are often thrown out too loosely when used to describe up-and-coming artists. In Reeb's case, however, the connections may be warranted." Mike's musical and song-writing influences include Jeff Tweedy, Damien Jurado, Ray Davies, John Steinbeck, Gillian Welch, David Bazan, and Bob Dylan.
