Introducing Becca Danielsen
SacTV.com "Video of the Day" review by
Alex Cosper on April 27, 2012
Becca Danielsen is a rising singer-songwriter in the
Sacramento area putting out her first CD with an impressive mix of styles. This video features an acoustic performance of her song "You Are" from her debut album Something Right.
Although she began playing guitar in the late seventies, it wasn't until 1995 that she began to pursue music
and play in public, starting at the Fox and Goose in Sacramento. Her songwriting partner Anne Smith helped
her overcome the anxiety of playing in public. Becca says meditation also helped. She then began playing with
bands. Her friend local indie artist Ken Koenig
produced her first album this year. It's called Something Right, featuring eleven tracks of eclectic sounds
rooted in folk, jazz, blues and pop.
Becca performs an acoustic version of her song "You Are," which she notes is a favorite on the album. It's a tuneful love song
with captivating lyrics over a bluesy guitar riff. Some of her favorite artists include Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Carly Simon
and Patsy Cline. Becca plans on performing as a duet known as Becca and Chuck at Farmers Markets this year, mixing fresh local produce
with fresh local music. As I told Becca, her song "You Are" blew me away when I heard it on Facebook recently after Ken Koenig
introduced me to her as an artist. This video was shot on April 26, 2012. Read more about the Sacramento music scene and other regional indie scenes at
