Hey! I open frequently for the Indigo Girls and I've been featured on All Things Considered. I'm love writing & singing gritty, authentic rock, country, and Americana.
I feel incredibly fortunate. I started writing songs at age 13 and these days I get to open for some of my biggest musical heroes, like The Indigo Girls and Mary Chapin Carpenter. My songs were reviewed favorably by the dean of American rock critics himself, Robert Christgau. I would love to help you take your own songs to the next level by offering my songwriting, singing, or recording expertise.
Here's a more official bio if you're into that:
With a slew of songwriting honors (including the Kerrville New Folk award and Merlefest country category award) and a frequent spot touring and singing with The Indigo Girls, Becky has proven she has the writing and performance skills to add a deluxe Nashville character to your project. She's a versatile writer and singer, with killer rock n roll songs like "Dive Bar Sweetheart" and vulnerable ballads like "I Miss You", all performed with grit and authenticity. She's written or co-written hundreds of songs for her solo projects, her bands The Reckless Electric and The Great Unknowns, and for other artists' records.

Becky was great to work with. She got was I was going after and created a great melody…..and her voice, one of a kind! Best of all she made some adjustment to the structure and lyrics that made what I had provided much better. Plus, she seems like a really nice person.

Becky is so accommodating and flexible and once again, I had a great experience working with her! She took my lyric beyond what I thought was possible (she has quite the knack for that!) and I am grateful to her:) I hope to connect again soon - thanks for everything, Becky.

Becky is such a great artist and soooo easy to work with! She took my simple little lyric, which I didn't even think was workable, and ensured me that it was do-able. She worked it into something that sounds very cool and relatable. I'm really proud of it and couldn't ask for anything more:) Thanks so much, Becky. You did a superb job and took it way beyond what I had imagined. That is the power of collaboration, I guess! Look forward to working with you again shortly:)

Becky took my lyrics and idea for a track and built a cool song with them. Soundbetter is a great platform for a non-pro to find awesome talent to work with. As a guy who just writes lyrics Its different to collaborate on a creative project with just messages sent back and forth. Not an easy thing to do but Becky did exactly that.

I chose Becky to help with my songwriting because I was so impressed by her own material. She really knows her stuff and she provided me with some great guidance on a song that will help make it into something great. I know I will work with her again.

Becky is an enormously talented singer/songwriter who I was blessed to have do the vocals for one of my songs. She seemed to intuitively sense what it needed.
We actually had a chance to meet in real life when she opened for the Indigo Girls in Baltimore. She's also my favorite Jeopardy! contestant. :)

Becky literally wrote the music my soul was wanting! My lyrics came to life with her folk styling! I’ve been looking for a co-writer with her abilities in this genre. Cheers love, you killed it!

Becky´s great lyrics turned my song from a bit lame to SO COOL!
She gave it the extra "grit" that the story desperately needed!!

Becky is one of Nashville's best singer/songwriters. I have had the honor to get to co-write amazing songs with her and each one has become my favorite. I would recommend her to anyone. She is truly a star and is so great to work with and has a killer voice to go with it.

I enjoyed working with becky, she has an amazing bluesy rock/ country voice. She created a cool melody to my lyrics, and listened and did a good job of getting the melody excatly the way i wanted it. If you want a gritty tone singer, I would recomend becky to sing for your project.

A: Mary Bragg! She's a dear friend and a phenomenal singer and songwriter.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My guitar, my laptop, my Kindle (reading inspires a lot of my writing!), a huge battery (for the laptop and the Kindle) and an ocean of drinking water.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been writing songs for more than 25 years, but my career really got started when Indigo Girl Amy Ray signed my Americana band, The Great Unknowns, to a record deal in 2004. I've recorded 2 albums with The Great Unknowns and one solo album.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Record a stellar performance and then don't muck about with it too much afterwards.

Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Empathy, authenticity, emotion, and a rock edge.
