Artist Bio
Todd Dereemer comes from a long line of Wyoming ranchers and musicians.
He is a fourth-generation Wyoming native as his family homesteaded
here over 120 years ago. As a singer/songwriter, Todd combines his
life experiences and western heritage into his music. Todd’s
songs are a diary of life, both his and others. His heartfelt lyrics
and smooth voice have won him a loyal following in Wyoming and beyond.
He has lived and performed in France and throughout the U.S. Todd’s
musical approach falls somewhere between Woody Guthrie and Randy
Travis. Todd has three independently released CDs with original
songs written and performed by him. Four other talented local musicians
will join him on stage: his brother Jode Dereemer, Mark Madsen,
Mark Wielang, and George Ball.

writes about and you will love it too. How refreshing to have a
musician combine songs of love, life and laughter into one great
CD.” – Beth Lamberson Warren, KSUT Four Corners Radio,
Ignacio, Colorado
“Like most songwriters, his music is of what he knows of life
in Wyoming and the West. His approach is somewhere between Woodie
Guthrie and Randy Travis.” – Rod Harwood,
Casper Star-Tribune Correspondent
“The first time I heard Todd play the title track to his
new CD [Wind Rivers], he was in my living room an the song gave
me goose bumps. You will be immediately connected to this touching
story, the Wind River Mountains, and of course Todd’s music.”
– Beth Lamberson, KSUT Four Corners Radio, Ignacio, Colorado

sincere and he represents Wyoming and its ideas in the songs he
writes and sings. Todd is a natural performer, he’s the guy
next door that gets to make and play great music for a living.”

“The great thing about Todd Dereemer’s music is that
he combines the fun in life with messages that straight from the
heart, The music is also very friendly to the ear, which is most
important to me with the music of today.” – Randy Oestman,
Managing Director, Cheyenne Little Theatre
“Todd Dereemer is a singer/songwriter/cowboy. His Wyoming
heritage makes his music special. His warm personal charm on stage
makes you feel as if you have known him forever. This helps you
identify with the philosophy and humor of his lyrical songs. As
in the Old West where you take off you hat and check-in your guns
at the door, you are lead into Dereemer’s music. I highly
recommend both of Todd’s self-produced CD’s for great
listening, and especially for great traveling music.” –
