About The Vibeshiftahs

The VibeShiftas consist of Dylan Bernal on drums, Kelli Brooks on bass, and the deep guitar talent of Brother Gabe Johnson, who's well known regionally for his work with Watkins Glen, Elektrapod, Brother Gabe Trio and Sonic Benders. The VibeShiftas is something special and brings a cutting, socially conscious vibration to their music and lyrics. Their predominantly original material blends R&B, Soul, Reggae, Pop, Blues, Jazz, Rock, and even some Funky Hip-Hop undertones. If you want to hear something unique, edgy, beautiful, and different with top-notch vocals and incredible musicianship, this band is for you.
Focusing on inclusivity and the magical vibrational shift that music generates when performed live with love and aptitude, Sean Alan & The VibeShiftas bring a much-needed freshness to the Central Oregon music scene.

About The Brothers Reed
Familial Folk
Despite their brotherhood, Aaron and Phil Reed didn’t start playing music together until two years ago after Phil left their hometown of St. Charles, Missouri to join Aaron in the unsullied mountains of the American Northwest. The brothers family blend of folk encapsulates the grit and humor of Midwest life with the swagger and serenity of the west coast. Their style evokes finger picking folk singers of the 60’s and 70’s with a contemporary and boundless edge. Cultivated from years of performing in bands ranging from heavy metal to reggae and rock, to punk, country, and funk, their musical dichotomy is at the root of their diverse yet seamless folk-brand.
With their comedic brotherly banter, impeccable harmonic expression, and widely varying influences, a Brothers Reed performance will have you reflecting on lost lives and lovers, laughing hysterically and leaving completely entertained.
Touring as a guitar-duo, the group incorporates harmonica, percussion and keys into their live performances, soothing your soul with songs that are familiar yet original. Whether they are finger picking their way through a lamentable ballad or bringing you around full-speed with a barn-burning bluegrass number, The Brothers Reed are masters of their craft.
