Dan Reed started his music career in 1985 as the frontman of The Dan Reed Network. The band released three very successful albums to much critical and commercial success between 1988 and 1992. He’s toured with many bands including Run-D.M.C., UB40, David Bowie, Bon Jovi and the Rolling Stones. Their latest album, Origins, was released in 2018.
In the 1990’s Dan started an independent record company in his hometown of Portland, Oregon to help promote local Northwest bands while at the same time studying acting. Dan was cast in a number of plays and small role’s in television and film projects, and was given great reviews for his performances, which gave him confidence to take it to the next logical step: screenwriting. Zigzag, a script penned by Dan, caught the eye of a local production company in Portland and was produced in 1997 with Mr. Reed playing the leading role. The film reached the Top 20 in Billboard’s home video rental category.
