Redwing was a band from Sacramento, CA. The band evolved out of the New Breed and later Glad, which included Timothy B. Schmit in the lineup. After Schmit left in 1970 to join Poco, his replacement in the band was Andrew Samuels. The other members of Redwing were Tom Phillips, Ron Floegal, and George Hullin. In early 1971 the band cut its first album, Redwing, for Fantasy.
