North Carolina-bred, New York-based singer/composer/guitarist Becca Stevens is a lifelong music-maker. Although she’s already won significant acclaim for her membership in Travis Sullivan’s Bjorkestra and her prestigious collaborations with the likes of Taylor Eigsti and Brad Mehldau, her sparkling debut, "Weightless," reveals a startlingly original, refreshingly distinctive talent in her own right. Her vocals communicate both immense warmth and effortless urgency, while understated arrangements and seamlessly crafted tunes embrace inventive acoustic textures and idiosyncratic rhythmic and melodic elements. The resulting music offers a beguiling blend of head and heart that resists easy categorization, drawing upon elements of pop, jazz, and folk without limiting itself to the rules of any particular genre. Becca's work has already received copious praise from the likes of the New York Times, who described her as “a best-kept secret” and called her debut indie release, "Tea Bye Sea," “impressively absorbing.”
