New Rock Princess Becca Will Be Performing at Otakon
From the time Becca was just 2 years old, she was already expressing herself through singing, and at the age of 10, she began playing the guitar and writing music.
Today at 19, Becca's journey from high school freshman to emerging artist has been nothing short of a dream come true for her. “It all happened when a family friend sent one of my demos to Meredith Brooks”, says Becca.
Meredith, a multi-platinum artist, producer & songwriter (singer of “Bitch”), was immediately impressed by what she heard. “Becca has a powerhouse voice, and when I realized that she could write songs too… I was sold."
Within the next couple of months, Becca moved to Los Angeles to begin writing and recording songs with Brooks. After spending some months developing her sound, she began to play live shows along the West Coast.
Becca's high-energy live performances began to grab the attention of the music industry and many new fans.
By late 2007, Becca was offered a record deal by Sony Music.
In June 2008, Becca debuted her first EP in Japan.
Since then, she has performed at the famous Japanese music festival, Summersonic, she has released a second EP, and her first full album, “Alive!!”, debuted at #2 on the international charts in Japan on Nov. 5th. This album includes hit songs like “Guilty Pleasure” (opening theme of Anime series “Ultraviolet: Code 044”), and the single “I'm Alive!” (ending theme of “Kuroshitsuji”) ,which not only topped the international single charts, but made her the only international artist to rank in the top 100 of Japan's overall single charts.
