Rebecca has been involved with music since she was a toddler, taking music classes at visionary college. Since she was six, she has sung at various venues, charity events, and competitions, including five years as a finalist at Capital Ex’s Northern Star Talent Search. She won the junior division of the St. Albert Idol competition in 2008, and returned in 2009 as a guest performer.
Rebecca is also a budding songwriter. To date, she has penned 25 songs, a contemporary mix of pop and folk with a hint of jazz. Rebecca expresses her thoughts and feelings as she writes: “I feel or experience something and when I try to express it, words and melody come out at the same time,” says Rebecca.
Rebecca has recorded two five-song EPs. “Young Voice, Old Soul” features other local musicians, demonstrating Rebecca’s considerable involvement in the arts community. As a regular performer on Sunday nights at Hulbert’s Songwriters Stage, Rebecca was noticed by Rhea March, who invited her to join U22. U22 has provided Rebecca with valuable mentorship and performance opportunities.
