Скачать или смотреть Merc Sessions: Reed K.D.

Talk to Reed Dahlmeier for any length of time about his music career, and one word is sure to crop up: "fun."

"I always thought having fun was the point of doing this," says the Santa Cruz-raised singer-songwriter, who records and performs under the name Reed K.D.

That explains why he'll spent a weekend with friends and family making a whimsical video for his tune "Cactus Garden," featuring charming Muppets-style puppets made by his mother. Or why he'll tour the country with friends and loved ones, playing bars and coffeehouses and sleeping three to a 1990 VW Vanagon, more for the adventure than for any hope of making it big.
