About Me

"With the earnest innocence of youth and the fierce drive of professionals, the boys are hard not to like. Redding's music comes across as honest and pure, with an essence of musical understatement that so many bands are afraid to employ." -Playback:STL "There is a certain charm in Redding's naivete and simplicity that makes one appreciate their music even more." -Illinois Entertainer
"The young quartet just released its self-titled debut this week, and the songs are full of feathery falsetto, mellow guitars and more earnestness than a poetry major's blog."
-Riverfront Times

Your comfortable and familiar pop/rock genre has never sounded so revived. REDDING is a group with intentions of propelling a fresh voice into your ears. The difference is the combination of a richly influenced background of moody and intricate Brit-rock (Travis, Coldplay, Elbow) with the classic down-to-earth atmosphere of simply pure songwriting. Redding is all about texture. The group creates a beautiful sense of melodic and lyrical depth in each song, with use of delicately placed layers, harmonies, and additional tasty bits.
Our self-titled album, which was produced by Kirk Kelsey and Chris Henderson (of 3 Doors Down) is in stores now! ( Read more .)
