When you go to see Rebecca Haviland perform, your initial instinct will be to watch this attractive young artist. But first, close your eyes. Rebecca's soulful voice will pour over you as the emotion in her voice solidifies a connection between that place deep inside her and her hungry audience. As she's seated at the piano, Rebecca's voice evokes memories of Ella Fitzgerald and a deep influence of Chicago blues. As she performs her original material, one will be reminded of the styles of Susan Tedeshi and Bonnie Raitt.



Today, Rebecca makes music her life, playing shows in such noted New York venues as the Bitter End and The Red Lion. She has released two records, the first entitled "Taking Advice From Strangers." which was produced by Peter Denenberg (The Spin Doctors) and drummer/producer Joe Bonadio (Martin Sexton). The second, "Three Thousand Miles," is a transatlantic collaboration with London based producer/composer Chris Amblin.



Rebecca can also be found as a backing vocals on many recordings, and as a backing musician/vocalist with a number of different groups in and around the city including the Evan Watson Band, The Greg Mayo Band, Susan Justice, and as lead singer of the Giving Tree. She also has another band called Lavalette that provides rock and dance pop to the masses. Her third solo record was released in May 2010 and is titled, "What I'm Sayin." Check back to her myspace page to see when she is performing, and to hear cuts off the new record.
