Short Bio

 Performing throughout the country, Kristin Rebecca entrances audiences with her angelic, expressive voice and storytelling lyrics, playing Celtic harp and acoustic guitar to accompany her vocals. Blending a folk music background with classical training to forge a dynamic new sound in the Roots genre, Kristin’s lyrics are inspired by her experiences and imagination, and by the timeless magic of legendary tales. Kristin is also a composer, writing tunes ranging from lively jigs to slow airs. Her harp accompaniments are unusually complex for a singer, evoking mental imagery from fireworks in the sky to a raging fight between lovers, while the guitar provides musical variety for her sets. As extolled by Modern Mystery Feature, “...the musical Goddess impresses with her delightful and vibrant sound. Blending elements of Americana and Folk Pop, her music bends genres while gracefully creating a unique and eclectic sound all of her own.”

  From concert series, listening rooms and art centers, to major festivals, Kristin has performed over a 1,000 shows in more than 160 cities in 35 states, D.C. and Canada. Festivals include the Philadelphia Folk Festival, Atlas Intersections Festival, the Smokey Mountain Songwriters Festival and Artscape. She has opened for many artists, including Kevin Burke and Pierce Pettis (Compass Records). Her music has been played on over 130 radio stations in the U.S. and on online radio in the United Kingdom, Europe and Canada. Kristin has appeared on live streams, radio shows, live sessions, podcasts, and TV. She was nominated for a WAMMIE award, charted top 25 on WESS, and top ten on Radio Guitar One. She is on the Maryland Performing Artist Touring Roster.  Kristin has released 2 full length albums, 2 EPs and 2 singles. Current projects include recording new music for an upcoming album and continuing to tour a wide variety of venues across the U.S.

SELECT PRESS QUOTES

"‘Tales, Trials, Truths’ delivers its messages from a myriad of directions and times. Personal expression, wider observations, narrative commentary and thoughtful reflections – each evoking timeless narratives to pull you into the stories. From the tongue-in-cheek left-field humour of ‘Wackos and Weirdos’ through a supremely gentle expression of love ‘In Your Eyes’ and the revealing sorrow of ‘Olive Branch’ to the soft rock essence of ‘Night In Santa Monica’ and the haunting evocative narrative of ‘Horseshoe’ these are songs that raise a shiver of involvement as they arrive, fascinate and remain. An album once heard, not likely to be forgotten." - FolkWords 

 

"...the musical Goddess impresses with her delightful and vibrant sound. Blending elements of Americana and Folk Pop, her music bends genres while gracefully creating a unique and eclectic sound all of her own." - Modern Mystery 

​

"It’s as if Kristin Rebecca is a bard, and each song is a sonnet for the modern age. Individually and collectively, her music tells many stories that reach towards the audience."- Indierella 

​

"Considering Kristin composes, arranges and writes herself, her talent is undeniably refreshing." - Middle Tennessee Music Review
