BMI Indie Spotlight: Walter The Producer
Walter The Producer, whose real name is Reid, is a 20-year-old Brooklyn-based psychedelic indie rocker. Born and raised in Massachusetts, he began playing guitar and piano at 10 years old and by 13 he was producing his own beats. Praised for his refreshingly original sound that’s both authentic and infectious, Walter The Producer is a diligent artist and masterful storyteller. He credits artists such as Anderson .Paak, Tame Impala, Steve Lacy, and Childish Gambino as major influences on his music. Ahead of his debut album, Walter The Producer released a string singles including “Souled,” “Velma,” and buzzy hit “Since September.” In July 2023, he dropped his debut album, No Substance Mixtape, which has been a launchpad for his career and landed him on an impressive number of personal playlists. His latest single, “THEY TOOK THE NIGHT,” is a Daft Punk-styled indie-pop song with ultra-modern, flashy production tricks.
