Bio
“The artistic love child of folk singer Joni Mitchell and stadium rocker Robert Plant.”
Rebecca Moore is a highly accomplished, award-winning singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Her music is described as traversing the plains between Led Zeppelin’s ‘Battle of Evermore’ and Stevie Nicks’ ‘Gold Dust Woman’.
She is currently producing her third full length album titled ‘The Goddess of War’ with Elliot Smith at Sundown Studios in Fremantle, Western Australia and with her Producer/Guitarist Mike Caen (Mental As Anything/Dragon/Jenny Morris) at his studio in Darlinghurst, New South Wales.
Rebecca is currently signed to record label MCM Global Team (Van Morrison) in Ireland, UK. Her 12-track album ‘Return’ was released through them on the 21st June, 2021.
‘Return’ was recorded with Martin Russell (Afro Celt Sound System) at Sonic Innovation Studios in London, UK and with David Sparks (Lime Spiders) at Pirate Studios in Tathra, NSW Australia. It spans more than a decade of touring and songwriting. The songs on this album combine the beauty of folk lyricism with the power of rock music and the emotion of the blues.
In both 2021 and in 2022, Rebecca was nominated for the Australian Folk Music Awards, People’s Choice Award. Throughout her career she has received many nominations and awards for her songwriting including winning the inaugural APRA Professional Development Award in the Rock category in 2001. Rebecca has numerous top 10 placings in the Australian Independent Music Awards, the Songsalive Song Comp, Musicoz, Toyota Starmaker (Finalist) and the Australian Songwriters Association Songwriting Awards. She was nominated for the ASA Rudy Brandsma Award for Songwriting Excellence in 2013.
She has toured extensively in Australia and the UK and has supported many great artists including Archie Roach, Xavier Rudd, Christine Anu, The John Butler Trio, Jon Stevens (Noiseworks), Sarah McLeod (The Superjesus), The Backsliders and the Afro Celt Sound System at the Sydney Opera House.
Since 2008 Rebecca has raised over $22,000 for a group of Orphans in Myanmar, known as the Nargis Children. The funds are donated to the Phaung Daw Oo Monastic School to help with the support, care and education of the orphans. Rebecca is driven both by music and a strong social conscience and has an ongoing commitment to raise awareness and funds for these lost children.
The first single from her new album titled ‘The Goddess of War’ will be released in late 2024.
