Who is Red Bird?
Fronted by Bre Gregg (vocals) and Dan Gildea (guitar), Red Bird’s sound is led by powerful yet tender vocals interspersed with mind-bending guitar features. Bre and Dan are magic together organically sharing the lead in a way that brings both to the forefront. Jeff Langston (bass) and Charlie Doggett (drums) are a force to be reckoned with, creating driving rhythm you will feel. Dancing between blues, soul and roots, their sound is both electrifying and intimate. You will be transported to a dimly lit and pulsating music club, but somehow feel you are listening in your best friend’s living room.

— Stephanie Kralevich, More Good Day Oregon (Fox 12)
“She’s got this great voice, forceful one minute, tender the next, controlled yet simmering with feeling.”
“I loved hearing Red Bird play...the band is killer and Bre's vocals are insane!”
