Becca Stevens Singer / Songwriter / Performer Biography
BECCA STEVENS SINGER / SONGWRITER / PERFORMER BIOGRAPHY North Carolina bred, Brooklyn based singer/multi- instrumentalist Becca Stevens is a composer, bandleader, and educator. In her playing, singing, and writing, Stevens has a voice that can only be accurately described as her own. Her original music is hailed worldwide for its its intricate harmonies and rhythms subtly rooted in jazz and Irish Folk and West African music. Boundless in the elements from which she draws her inspiration, Stevens is known for her unique ability to craft exquisite and authentic compositions both for her own band, and for GRAMMY award winning artists who run the gamut of genre from Jacob Collier, to Michael League (Snarky Puppy), and most notably with folk legend David Crosby. Stevens is a member of Crosby’s Lighthouse Band whose album ‘Here If You Listen’ (BMG ‘18), features the distinct songwriting of its four members— Stevens, Crosby, League, and Michelle Willis. Stevens has received copious praise from the likes of The New York Times, was Downbeat Magazine’s 2017 Rising Star Female Vocalist, and was featured on NPR Music’s “Songs We Love”. She has toured the world performing with her band, and collaborating with peers such as Brad Mehldau, Kneebody, Esperanza Spalding, Billy Childs, Ambrose Akinmusire, Vijay Iyer, Taylor Eigsti, José James, Eric Harland, Gerald Clayton, Travis Sullivan’s Björkestra and many others. In 2015, Perfect Animal, the highly anticipated follow up to Weightless (Sunnyside), produced by engineer Scott Solter, was released on Universal Music Classics. Becca’s music is featured on Snarky Puppy’s Family Dinner, Vol.

Jeff Beal the Salvage Men
JEFF BEAL THE SALVAGE MEN Eric Whitacre, conductor Eric Whitacre Singers Live at Union Chapel, London TRACK LIstING THE SALVAGE MEN 1. A VERY LONG MOMENT 06:01 2. SPIDERWEB 05:05 3. VIRGA 05:48 4. AGE 04:00 5. SALVAGE 06:44 JEFF BEAL Jeff Beal is an American composer of music for film, media, and the concert hall. With musical beginnings as a jazz trumpeter and recording artist, his works are infused with an understanding of rhythm and spontaneity. Steven Schneider for the New York Times wrote of “the richness of Beal’s musical thinking...his compositions often capture the liveliness and unpredictability of the best improvisation.” Beal’s seven solo CDs, including Three Graces, Contemplations (Triloka) Red Shift (Koch Jazz), and Liberation (Island Records) established him as a respected recording artist and composer. Beal’s eclectic music has been singled out with critical acclaim and recognition. His score and theme for Netflix drama,House of Cards, have earned him several Emmy Awards, most recently in 2015. Other scores of note include his dramatic music for HBO’s acclaimed series Carnivale and Rome, as well as his comedic score and theme for the detective series, Monk. Beal composes, orchestrates, conducts, records and mixes his own scores, which gives his music a very personal, distinctive touch. Beal’s commissioned works have been performed by many leading orchestras and conductors, including the St. Louis (Marin Alsop), Rochester, Pacific (Carl St. Clair), Frankfurt, Munich, and Detroit (Neeme Jaarvi) symphony orchestras. The Salvage Men is his first choral piece written for the Eric Whitacre Singers and the Los Angeles Master Chorale.
