forged in the quiet of her bedroom or the calm of the bathroom, becca jean's song are poetic, intellectual moments of sweet diy 3 chord (sometimes 4) rock n roll. her lyrics often express the complexity and raw honesty of a break-up. in fact, becca jean jokes that she "only writes break up songs."
becca jean was initially inspired by the yellow bondage pants of gwen stefani to channel her secret emotional life into pop punk songs instead of the poorly conceived paula abdul rips offs of her early childhood. her musical influences have expanded to include requisite punk rocks bands - the clash, the ramones, the descendents, bad religon - as well as the 90s pop punk bands of her high schools days, classic country, alt country, and 80s pop music - an influence she ascribes mostly to her madonna loving childhood babysitters.
becca jean recently moved to brooklyn, new york and is focusing her efforts on starting a band. she is also working on a kick-ass website.
