Since 2001, Bre Loughlin has been touring the
west coast with a variety of projects: from
Sympathy Records' snotty punk quartet -The
Stuck-Ups, to the art-rock of Kuma, and most
recently with the indie-pop project Daylight
Basement. Playing main support for acts such as
Concrete Blonde and The Gossip, Bre has
electrified stages with soaring vocals and crowd
commanding performances.

Loughlin has shed the moniker of Daylight
Basement to deliver her forthcoming full-length
release Modern American Photo Album (available
Nov 12th). Acoustic guitars are primary
accompaniment to her signature vocal style.
Melodic bass, drums, horns, and strings are also
orchestrated to put the listener in the passenger
seat of a car driving through Loughlin's thoughts
and memories.

Produced by Brian Valentino (Weezer, Stevie
Nicks, Kiss, Cat Power, Black Rebel Motorcycle
Club, Oscar winning Brokeback Mountain
soundtrack), the sound is a heartfelt blend of
80s pop-rock (ala Men at Work), acoustic song
writing, and Bre's fearless vocals -- her singing
with a Cheshire grin as if every note might be
her last.

Tom Scanlon - The Seattle Times
She sang "Porcupine," "The Hospital" and a few
other songs [from Modern American Photo Album],
demonstrating the powerful, wide-ranging voice
that makes her a local treasure - and, perhaps,
national star-in-the-making.'

Geoff Carter - NW Source
'She has a stage presence that's virtually
without rival and a face that belongs on the
cover of every music magazine in America and
Europe, and you can practically feel her powerful
voice inside your chest.'

Tizzy Asher - Seattle PI
"Her chilling croon is part Siouxsie Sioux, part
Martha Davis (of the Motels) and all icy diva.
She sidles up to the piercing high notes and
purrs seductively until they fall into her
range...."
