Rebekka is a Swedish-Norwegian band that formed around 2009. Their music draws from folk and pop, with some Celtic touches in the arrangements. They released their self-titled debut album in 2009, followed by 'Before I Give You My Heart' in 2011. That album's title track became one of their better-known songs.
Maria Eriksson handles lead vocals and writes most of the material, while Gunnar Björnson plays guitar and produces their recordings. Their sound leans on Eriksson's clear, melodic voice and Björnson's layered guitar work. Songs like 'Black N Blue' and 'I Finally Found' show their preference for straightforward, emotionally direct writing over complex production.
They put out a third album called 'Never Fade Away' in 2014. The band built their audience gradually through live shows rather than sudden breakthroughs. Their lyrics sometimes drew attention for being more personal or pointed than typical folk-pop, which suited listeners looking for something a bit plainer than mainstream offerings.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
