Bec Willis is a young Australian singer/songwriter based on the Central Coast of New South Wales.



It was Bec's undeniably unique voice that first grabbed the attention of one of Australias most successful and respected singer / songwriters, Kasey Chambers, in a chance encounter in early 2004.



Kasey was so impressed with Bec she offered to produce her debut and currently unsigned album the first time Kasey had stepped out of performing mode to work on another artists project.



"It was that beautiful and quirky catch in her voice that first appealed to me. It was different from anything I had heard but what a bonus when I discovered she was also a great songwriter. She has a special way of making a song sound unmistakably original yet familiar and comfortable. A sad songwriter who still makes you smile - the best kind " said Kasey about why she decided to produce Becs album.



The result is a stunning collection of songs, beautifully recorded and exquisitely delivered by a singer who means every word.



The project also features a number of Australias elite musicians including another champion of Becs, Bill Chambers, along with Kaseys long-time bass player, Jeff McCormack.



Hailing from Ceduna in South Australia a small isolated coastal town about 800kms west of Adelaide Bec, it seemed, was destined to be a singer / songwriter.



She started playing guitar at the age of 7 after her parents bought her a guitar for Christmas. Her brother Billy, who was already quite the all rounder (guitar, bass, vocals and songwriting) showed Bec some chords which came in handy for the regular family jam sessions.



Since starting a band in which she played bass at 14, music has been the passion of Becs life she has played in a variety of bands during her residence in Brisbane (including some she formed and lead), toured Australia as a musician with some high profile artists and of course recently, wrote and recorded her debut album which was released in October 2007 through Shock Records.
