Rebecca Parks writes award-winning songs that set scenes, tell stories, and dramatize conversations.
She has introspective vulnerability and a folk-rock sensibility with a theatrical touch. Her lyrics are sharp, her melodies memorable.
She's not afraid of controversial subjects, but she also doesn't take herself too seriously.
Brimming with gratitude, hard fought self-knowledge, and wry wit, the new album by Rebecca Parks, Secret Stage, is a defining artistic
statement. It proudly displays her prowess as a fingerstyle guitarist and pianist, and her sumptuous vocals and harmonies alongside her
husband, the gifted vocalist and accomplished visual artist, Gary Parks. The pair's love story is intertwined with her musical evolution,
and the couple perform live as a duo. Secret Stage explores maturity and personal themes of social justice.
Rebecca's latest release consists of two bonus albums. Adventures with Amy is solo guitar work.
Dyad is a collection of folk and rock covers, with Gary singing lead on most of them and Rebecca contributing some original arrangements.
It was during a time of many losses, beginning with her grandfather's death and ending with a broken engagement, that Rebecca first decided to return
to her music after a long absence. More recently, Rebecca took a break from music due to the pandemic and a genetic condition that caught up with her,
which she overcame with the help of an exceptional friend. She is once again reclaiming her life and her voice.
