âThe Freys are sweet and smashing!â

--Mark Wilson, sound engineer, Earthdance, Oregon Country Fair

âThe Freysâ music is joyous, lyrical and uplifting, with a unique blend that seems to combine reggae, newgrass and world beat. It is at once playful, energizing and smoothe, with lyrics and rhythms that seem at once familiar and brand new. Great music to move to, the Freys have created a unique sound thatâs a great delight to discover.â

--Nina Simons, Co-Producer, Bioneers Conference
Co-Executive Director, Collective Heritage Institute

âThe Freys burst onto the music scene with rhythms and sinsitivity reminiscent of Paul Simon when he visited South Africa. Sweet, heartfelt vocals from Dan Frey have an innocent joy not heard since Jonathan Richmond and his Modern Lovers carries us all back to the unbearable sweetness of first love and the love of youth. As with Richmond, the simple purity of the instrumentation perfectly supports the sentiments of the Freysâ songs. This is a band to watch!! And I mean that literally because the Freys must be a real pleasure to see live.â

--David Hosbein

"[The Freysâ] rhythms combine a Brazilian influence with undertones of folk and applachian music. The original lyrics demonstrate that these three young people are wise beyond their years."
--Lilipoh Magazine

Two brothers and a cousin, Daniel, Sam and Adam Frey (ages 23,20,19, respectively) began playing music early in their lives. During the past five years, they gradually formed the upilfting folk-reggae sound that theyâre known for. All three of them also attended a Waldorf school, where open-hearted creative expression was encouraged. They compose the arrangements as a group, endeavoring to create a fresh, pure feel to support a new melody and lyrics.
The Freys grew up deep in the mountains of northern California on an extraordinary family community: Frey Vineyards Organic Winery and Farm. Much of the food is sustainably grown in between the vine rows and in surrounding orchards, gardens and pastures including: potatoes, vegetables, fruits and dairy. Any visitor to Frey Vineyards will see long rows of solar panels, flow form fountains, as well as tractors and vehicles that run on biodiesel. Incidentally, these young men grew up surrounded by forests, bird songs, ponds, and dozens of fellow barefoot cousins.
