Hailing from Detroit, Reuther is a band that rose from the ashes of the former projects of the founding members James Vee and Daniel Stover. Having spent years touring the US with their former band, Forty Lashes, they ultimately wanted to continue the excitement and energy that reckless touring afforded them. Their initial vision was to allow their penchant for catchy, poppy and infectious tunes guide them while obtaining inspiration from their favorite bands The Loved Ones, The Flatliners and The Swellers. This combination of pop sensibilities and powerful melodies has been building Reuther’s name since their inception in 2013.

Having learned some lessons and earned some bruises along the way, Reuther is ready and willing to show how animated and vivacious Detroit Pop-Punk can be. All they ask is for a chance to blow you away and you will be begging for more.

Like a Ghost

So Predictable

Tuxedos and Jetskis

Statement

While We Wait

Let Go

This new EP is a reflection on the current state of life in the US, both intimate and broad. The band’s namesake, Walter Reuther, is well known in Detroit for fighting endlessly for worker’s rights in the early and mid 20th century. The past year has been a stern reminder that this fight is never over. Singer, Guitarist and Lyricist Jim Vee has taken direct inspiration from the hardships that many are enduring since losing their jobs at the beginning of the 2020 pandemic and prior. Reuther wanted to encapsulate these ideals into their new songs, relying on the deprivational experiences that many can identify with in The US, especially now. The content of the lyrics are personal and at the same time, completely relatable to every working person. Themes of hopelessness after losing a job, struggling with depression, and the yearning for a new start and a new understanding are what you can expect from this record. Many new themes were being explored for the band, but they’re always mixed with Pop Rock ferocity.
