Editor's note

Dan Reed Network's funk-rock blend from Portland.

A band that mixed rock with funk and R&B, anchored by Dan Reed through lineup changes.

For a quick sense of their thing, put on 'Chill Out' or 'All My Lovin'. That's the blend right there.

They carved out a space with a sound that wasn't just straight-ahead rock. You can hear it in the groove of 'Chill Out' or the melodic drive of 'All My Lovin'. That mix of styles gave them a dedicated following that lasted through the '90s and beyond.

They started in Portland in 1984, with the self-titled debut arriving in 1987. Original members like Dan Pred and Brion James left over time, but Dan Reed kept the band going through albums like 'Slam' and 'Fight Another Day'.

Dan Reed Network formed in Portland, Oregon in 1984, with Dan Reed on vocals and guitar, Dan Pred on guitar, Melvin Brannon II on bass, and Brion James on drums. Their self-titled debut album came out in 1987 and included the single 'All My Lovin'. The band's sound mixed rock with funk and R&B elements, heard on tracks like 'Forgot To Make Her Mine' and 'Chill Out'.

Pred and James left the band in the years that followed, and the lineup changed several times. Blake Sakamoto joined on bass in 1990, and Rob Daiker came in on drums in 1992. They kept recording through the 1990s and early 2000s, putting out albums like 'Slam', 'The Heat', and 'Fight Another Day'.

Dan Reed has been the consistent presence through the band's shifts. Their music, with its melodic hooks and blend of styles, found an audience that stuck with them.
