About with Bre Paletta trio
A poet at heart, Portlandia native Bre Paletta's velvet-honey voice delivers thoughtful lyrics over intricately woven melody and guitar. Her carefully crafted songs about love, struggle and self discovery display strong musical sensibilities and perhaps a touch of the mystic...
Oftentimes accompanied by various stringed/wind instruments and percussion, Bre's unique sound is inspired by a slew of musical foremothers and fathers running the gamut from Tori Amos to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Pink Floyd and Alison Krauss.
As a book-worm, visual artist, self taught guitarist who studied music in college, Bre's highly imaginative, intuitive and expressive nature is here paired with a structured understanding of theory and form.
She brings to the table vulnerability, passion and mystery. Her music has been called enchanting and haunting, possessing a breadth of vision and and fraught with vivid metaphor. She believes words are magic and that music has the power to heal, inspire and transcend boundaries.
Bre is also currently co-front person for Portland's very own The Sale, an indie-folk-reggae-rock band. She regularly performs as Stephanie Schneiderman's back-up vocalist, has added vocal harmonies to several other groups such as Will West & the Friendly Strangers and Keegan Smith & the Fam and was the lead singer for regional act Rye Hollow.
