Rebecca Moore

Biography

Folk Rock pianist and guitarist Rebecca Moore is a gifted singer and unique songwriter who has been compared to Tori Amos and Joni Mitchell. Her songs combine the beauty of ancient folk music traditions with the power of rock instrumentation. Lyrically the songs contain vibrant imagery, commonsense awareness and clear perception that resonates universally.

Traversing the plains stylistically between Led Zepplin's Battle of Evermore and Stevie Nicks' Gold Dust Woman, Rebecca is engaging an ever growing fan base who are drawn by her humour and openness, as well as by the intricacy of the metaphor and the stories in her songs.

Rebecca was recently named as a Finalist in the 2010 Toyota Star Maker Competition. In 2009 she was shortlisted in the ASA Songwriting Awards, a Finalist in the Melbourne Songwriter's Competition, and a Grand Finalist in the Melbourne Industry Showcases. She recently returned from a tour in WA where she performed at the "Hope From The Ashes" Bushfire Benefit Concert and featured on Channel 9 news.

She is currently the co-ordinator of the Burmese Orphans Concert Series which is raising funds for Burmese Orphanage Phaung Daw Oo where there are over 7000 children attending. A national album release tour in 2010 will be raising money and awareness for these children.

Rebecca is a dedicated artist who combines an intelligent commentary on personal, social and global concerns with the high energy of her live shows. She maintains a distinct individuality and an inspiring creative presence.
