Scott Perrie and Jeremy Breaks have been collaborating since 2006 when they met at an open jam in Vancouver. Both multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriters they grew up surrounded by music; one from the north and the other from the south of B.C. As a boy, Perrie joined choir in Coquitlam, discovered the theatre in high school and inherited his grandfathers ‘61 Gibson J45 guitar soon after discovering The Beatles on vinyl. Breaks grew up and worked in his father’s music store in Prince George and played in local funk, rock & heavy metal bands. His dad repairs and collects vintage guitar amps and has an extensive record collection in his basement which they raid regularly when on tour in PG.
Together they are the heart and soul of Redgy Blackout and the music they create is Alternative Folk Roots & Rock with just enough Pop. 2011 saw the release of their third record in as many years. Self-titled, this 7 track album was produced by Elisa "Boots" Pangsaeng, mixed by Tom Dobrzanski (Said The Whale, We Are The City, Hey Ocean!) and recorded at Vertical and Blue Wave Studios in Vancouver. It landed them a top 20 spot in BC's Peak Performance Project 2011, has been heard on college radio across Canada and was recently added to Galaxie Radio. They've toured consistently during the past three years playing bars and clubs throughout western Canada. With appearances at Deraylor Festival, BC Rivers Day Festival, Harrison Festival for the Arts, and most recently Pop Okanagan they have garnered recognition from peers and fans alike as a dynamic live band. They couldn't be more ready and excited to play their first show ever in Toronto during Canadian Music Week in March 2012.
