this is what Rebekah does: piano, vocals, some acoustic guitar, attempts the accordion, and rarely sleeps.
what Jessica Catron does: cello, vocals, and sports a kick-ass tattoo.
what John Ballinger does: guitar, clarinet, piano, vocals and makes us all laugh.
last but never least, what Butch does: (yes Butch from the eels): drums, percussion, vocals, and wears his cowboy hat.
Rebekah Jordan grew up in an all black neighborhood in Cleveland listening to everything from James Brown to João Gilberto, Motown to Mozart, Paul McCartney to the Pixies, which explains the eclectic sound of her music.
Also a songwriter, Rebekah's song "Beautiful Disaster" was recorded by Kelly Clarkson on both her first self-titled release and as an acoustic bonus track on her second album Breakaway.
Though she fell into lead roles in the Warner Brothers movie "Liberty Heights" directed by Barry Levinson (Avalon, Rainman, Diner) and most recently in "Latter Days", an indie film written and directed by C. Jay Cox, who also wrote the hit movie "Sweet Home Alabama", for Rebekah, music is her love.
"Everyone in our family was musical. But music was something you did at church or at home on the weekends." So after high school, Rebekah went off to study biomedical engineering. "I showed up wearing mocassins and tie-dye with a crystal around my neck, blasting the Cocteau Twins. To say I didn't fit in would be an understatement. People always thought I was in the wrong building, they would point me towards the art department. One day I realized they were right."
Rebekah financed, produced and released her new CD independently through her own Tea Party Records. The 6 song EP, titled "The Trouble With Fiction" includes 5 original songs and what is becoming a signature interpretation of the Stevie Nicks classic, "Dreams".
Ok My dear Miss Jordan, I have a bucket of popcorn ready and a great big can of pop, where can I view this music video? lol, I am anxiously awaiting what I know will be the greatest piece of art of 2008!
Independence started laughing at me hysterically He asked "Do you really think you're entirely free" I replied, "Yes why do you ask such an idle question?" Independence said "you need to learn a valuable lesson When you wake in the morning to start your repetitious day In the mirror does that person have undeniable faith What are the first thoughts that cross your mind Where do people seem to be rushing to all the time Do you think of all the people who resist positive change How about the hopeless in our world addicted to things" In conclusion Independence said, "until you see all of humanity free Then is when you will be able to truthfully celebrate me"
Enjoy the holidays in full... Had to do me on this one coming from the passionate tip as usual. Ain't nothing change. Peace until.........

Hi Rebekah. Sorry I missed your show BECAUSE I AM IN THE WRONG PART OF THE COUNTRY. ::SIGH:: I'm OK..just need to "Remember to Breathe". Maybe at your next show "Angels" [sense a theme?] can transport me to Cali from Indiana. Naah..that'll only happen in my [wait for it....] "Dreams." With my luck, they'd drop me and I'll end up [this is fun!] in "The Sweet Here After."
Actually, I should get back to work - I like my job and, well "Cardboard Boxes" really aren't that cool.
But princess, you are a wonderful talent (but you know this). Maybe one day I'll be blessed to hear your voice in some live venue. Take care, Rebekah!
