I have a lot of new music coming out that you can hear for the first time live at 3 different showcases, and a Portishead cover you won't want to miss.”
Hailed as one of NYLON's “favorite cool girls” and an “indie-pop vocalist of astonishing candor” by the HuffPost, beccs confronts, heals and draws audiences with her powerful messages and authentic charisma.
Blending edgy modern songwriting with her soul-stirring voice akin to classic 60's Laurel Canyon, beccs has crafted a unique sonic tapestry showcased with a live show that is as dynamic as it is vulnerable.

Critically acclaimed by Refinery29, NYLON, AudioFemme, PopDust, HuffPost, beccs was featured on The BUILD Series with Monet X Change (RuPaul's Drag Race) for her queer-inclusive Christmas music video, "Before This Christmas Ends".
