Becky Chace

Together with longtime friend and guitarist Brian Minisce, Becky Chace writes, performs, and records genre-defying, soulful music which twists and turns through the varied paths of life leaving their listeners feeling connected to the bigger picture through the window of their work. Their music has the sadness and swing of alt-country and blues ala Lucinda Williams, but can kick into the rock bravado of rock and pop ala Bruce Springsteen and drop into the lonely despair of a folk song all in one set.
Chosen Best Local Female Vocalist 5 times in 6 years (2000-2003, 2005) by the readers of the Providence Phoenix Best Music Poll, Becky has been said to have "the voice of an angel who just got her heart ripped out by the devil." - The New Haven Advocate
Her CDs have received critical acclaim from publications including The Boston Globe who called Chace's Take Your Shot "a stunning collection of original roots rock, folk, and blues." Chace has opened for such national acts as Joan Jett, America, Judi Collins, The Gin Blossoms, Better Than Ezra, Big Brother and the Holding Company, Littlefeat, Delbert McClinton, and Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes to name a few and is "arguably hands-down one of the most celebrated singer-songwriters to come out of the Rhode Island area." Motif Magazine
Becky believes that music should be used as a tool to bring people together. Chace proves genres and styles don't matter as long as the singer expresses herself with passion. Having sold over 8,000 plus copies of her independently released CDs, it is obvious that her fans believe this passion comes across on CD as well.
In 2007, Becky released 2 CDs, “A River Under Me,” her seventh independent release and "The Best of Me," a collection of her best work as well as previously unreleased material. You can find all 87 of her published original songs on her website for download. In 2008, Becky and Brian collaborated with filmmaker Rachel Ferro to make a video for their song Some Time. The video premieres February 09. Becky and Brian continue to tour New England and beyond. Recently they've been collaborating with RI music scene staples John Amitrano (bass guitar) and Mike D'Albergaria (drums). Together the foursome are playing out mixing originals with some interesting choice covers. They're having a blast and finding audiences extremely supportive of the new outfit. Becky also plays with the seven piece Neil Young Tribute band Forever Young which also includes Amitrano on bass.
