Becca Stevens

Episode 136: Just beyond the fuzzy boundaries of roots and Americana music, we find Brooklyn Based singer-songwriter Becca Stevens. And I hope you have found her. With a complex musical language drawn from folk, jazz, classical and pop, her output is searching, challenging and ever-evolving. A graduate of the NC School of the Arts and the New School in New York, she leaps from American public radio to European tours to collaborations with the likes of Jacob Collier, Snarky Puppy and recently folk icon David Crosby. She is among my favorite artists working today, so I sought out an interview, and I was excited and loaded with questions when she said yes. Her newest album is the shiny and electric Wonderbloom.
