About Me


Bio
The Past

In the beginning…there was Reagan, and he was good. He plucked his first guitar string at the ripe-old age of eight. Within a few years he was playing with his local church group. In middle school, and all the way through high school, Reagan played lead guitar in a pop-rock band called Czar. Czar played several gigs on the campus of OSU, and also performed at two local talent shows. During high school, Reagan also laid down the grooves (played drums) for a jazz/funk influenced band called "The Mark Philips Band."

As a drummer, Reagan also played for the Jeremy Richter Effort (JRE). This trio played over 400 performances during it's six-year period beginning 1998 and ending 2003. With performances all over the Mid-west and New York, and opening gigs for such bands as, The Big Wu, OAR, Jamestowne, and Days of the New, this band was a regional success. JRE was also awarded "best new"& "best performing" accolades from independent associations and sold over 1500 units of their debut album & EPs.

The Present

Today, Reagan has collected his writings from the past eight years and put them to work. He currently lives in Dallas, TX, and is working hard to get his name out to everyone, and everything. With such a strong music background…there is simply no stopping Reagan Redfern.

Deep Ellum Arts Festival

Today I played at the deep ellum arts festival...my first gig in three years!  It was cold and gray...to my dismay...hip-hip-hooray? No.  I had a great time despite the "frosty weather."&nbs...
