Rebecca Loebe is coming to Durham!
Over the past decade, Austin based troubadour Rebecca Loebe has been steadily building her audience the old fashioned way: driving hundreds of thousands of miles in an old station wagon, performing in listening rooms and theatres across the US, Canada, Japan, Europe, and the UK. During her last radio interview in England, an announcer for the BBC declared ?Your voice should be available for free on the National Health!?
Her singing voice landed her on national television when she was cast on the first season of NBC?s The Voice. Ask her about that experience and she?ll proudly tell you that, since her mentorship with Adam Levine, ?His career has really skyrocketed and I?m just so proud of that boy.?
Lately she?s been indulging a sneaky pastime. ?I like to write catchy songs about topics that are meaningful to me, but use fun hooks to put words in people?s mouths.? She admits, ?My favorite thing is to get people singing along before they even realize they?re singing about women?s equality or their own self-worth.?
In 2019, she released her fifth studio album, her first collaboration with the Grammy nominated Houston-based record label Blue Corn Music. The genre-bending album borrows equally from the worlds of intimate folk, ear wormy pop, and no-holds-barred Americana.
Refusing to pledge allegiance to any single genre was a creative gamble that has paid off in a big way: Give Up Your Ghosts has received the best press of Loebe?s career including praise from Billboard, Rolling Stone, and legendary rock critic Dave Marsh, who said: ?Once I put it on I couldn?t take it off.?
Recently, Rebecca has spent her time recently writing, recording, performing online, and launching a Youtube series about what really goes on behind the scenes in the lives and careers of independent musicians. She also got a dog, so if you hate puppy pictures, make sure not to look at her social media!
