Guess That Record

The 2,000 people who filled the River Cree Resort and Casino in Edmonton on October 18, 2025 witnessed a performance that felt both urgent and celebratory. Jackson Reed and The Silverbirds took the stage with the confidence of a seasoned touring act and the hunger of a young band determined to reach the next level. The night was captured in full, and that recording became the foundation for the group’s new release, Live in ’25.

Based in Calgary, the band is led by frontman and primary songwriter Jackson Reed, whose vision blends modern pop and rock textures with a deep respect for the classic sounds that shaped earlier eras. Their style is melodic, hook-driven and emotionally direct, reflecting a wide range of influences while remaining unmistakably their own. Skope Magazine praised them as “a rising force in the music industry,” while veteran music journalist Jeff Gemmill of The Old Grey Cat observed that “Reed and band echo the power pop of the late seventies and early eighties in the best possible ways.”

The group’s reach has expanded steadily across Canada and into the United States. They have appeared on CTV, earned playlist and radio support in major and secondary markets, and built a growing presence in cities from coast to coast. Their catalog continues to draw attention from industry peers as well. Reed and The Silverbirds have collaborated, recorded, or performed with several respected musicians, including Andy Summers, Neil Giraldo, and Kenny Aronoff.

The year 2025 marked a significant turning point. Their live show grew larger, tighter, and more dynamic as they shared major concert stages with Streetheart and the legendary Nazareth.
