Another impactful festival in the books…for me, this image captures not only a special moment encouraging unity and patriotism inspired by the The War and Treaty, but also encapsulates the greater meaning and community achieved through our coming together and celebration of the shared value of music. Proud to support the work of the Red Ants Pants Foundation and encouraged by the resulting programmatic outcomes of hope and strength.

Captivated by this moment as The War and Treaty spontaneously shared a heart-stopping rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" and we all turned our eyes to the American flag following Michael Trotter's moving speech encouraging us to reflect on and uplift the united togetherness in the intent of the United States of America. 🇺🇸❤️🐜

Brianne Rogers has over a decade of political, policy, communications, and management experience, having held director positions in both Washington, D.C. and Bozeman, Montana for Montana’s longest-serving U.S. Senator, Max Baucus, as well as serving as Montana Chief of Staff for U.S. Senator John Walsh. She rocketed into the private sector in 2015, launching her consulting business, Bird Dog Strategies, LLC. Bree has become an essential asset to her clients, steering major organizations in the region through rapid response and crisis communications while providing brand strategy leadership that has resulted in triple digit sales growth for other clients.

Bree is a native Montanan committed to making the state a better place, and known by colleagues across the state for getting things done and building lasting relationships. In this spirit, she was appointed by Governor Steve Bullock to the Montana Board of Regents in 2018.

Since 2015, she has served as Sarah Calhoun’s right hand woman, helping to produce the most successful Red Ants Pants Music Festivals to date. In 2017/2018, she facilitated Bozeman Health’s ‘Elevating Behavioral Health’ community initiative to identify collaborative opportunities for increasing mental health services in Southwest Montana. In 2013, she co-produced Senator Baucus’ Economic Development Summit in Butte, a 4,000-attendee business conference featuring eleven keynote presentations including: Google’s Eric Schmidt, FedEx’s Fred Smith, Tesla Motors’ Elon Musk, Facebook’s Sheryl Sandberg, and Ford’s Alan Mullaly. In 2011, she produced the two-week, 2,500-attendee Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Second Senior Officials Meeting in Big Sky, MT in conjunction with the U.S. Departments of State, Commerce and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative.

Bree spends her free time enjoying Montana’s great outdoors. You’ll find her chasing upland birds and waterfowl hunting with her father year-round. She lives in Bozeman with her Grand River Labrador Retriever, Foxx.
