A life in stories.
Reed LoRenzo Shannon is an actor, recording artist and filmmaker whose work spans film, television, animation, stage and original music. Known for voicing Ekko in Netflix’s Arcane, playing Scotty Simms in Prime Video’s The Wilds and leading Splash City as Juju, he brings a performer’s instinct and a musician’s sense of rhythm to each part of his work.
Raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, Reed began his professional career at 13 on the first national tour of Motown The Musical.
