Rebekah Gilbert is a singer-songwriter, poet, and storyteller whose music and words have been offering a unique blend of vulnerability, introspection, and hope since 2009. Known for her thought-provoking lyrics and deeply personal narratives, Rebekah has a way of inviting her listeners into her world, encouraging them to reflect on their own stories along the way. Her soulful, intimate vocals have been described as “a warm light in a dark room,” making her performances a journey of connection and emotional depth.

​

Rebekah’s creative journey began in 2009 when she started writing as a blogger at A New Song to Sing. It was there that her love for lyrical storytelling found its roots, ultimately evolving into a passion for songwriting. Her writing style blends the reflective nature of poetry with the emotional rawness of music, making her work resonate with anyone seeking meaning and connection through art.

​

In 2012, Rebekah released her first EP, "Captured," which marked her official entry into the world of songwriting. However, it wasn’t until 2022 that she released new music with "Happy Place," followed by "You Are Loved" in 2023. Each release showcased her growth as both an artist and a person, offering a glimpse into her evolving sound and the personal experiences that shape her music.

​

In 2024, Rebekah took a bold step by publishing her first poetry collection, Poems from the Back Pew: A Journey from Faith to Doubt and Beyond. This deeply personal book, paired with the companion EP "Year of Jubilee," delves into her transformative journey of dismantling her evangelical belief system and seeking freedom through self-discovery and revolution. The combination of poetry and music provides an immersive experience, guiding readers and listeners alike through her raw and honest exploration of faith, doubt, and freedom.

​

As she looks ahead to 2025, Rebekah is preparing to release new music that promises to break fresh ground. With a cover song and a brand-new EP on the way, her fans can expect something unlike anything she’s ever created before.

​

Musically, Rebekah’s sound falls within the Americana genre, drawing comparisons to the confessional lyricism of Patty Griffin, the moody, soothing vocals of Norah Jones, and the emotive, soulful delivery of Brandi Carlile. Her music speaks to anyone who has experienced life’s struggles, joys, and the profound moments of self-discovery along the way.

​

When she’s not writing, recording, or performing, you can find Rebekah soaking in a good book, discovering new music, or curling up with her cat, Phoebe.
