Jazz is Rebecca's first love and her earliest "teachers" were Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Carmen McRae. Later she studied at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and continues to explore the rich and varied repertoire of the genre and develop her craft as a performer and improviser.    With many years of experience under her belt, she has performed in venues large and small, at home and abroad, including ​Shakespeare's Globe, the National Theatre and jazz clubs up and down the country.

As a composer and bandleader, she has toured her music to venues and festivals around the UK and abroad, including the Montreal Jazz Festival and the Linbury Theatre (Royal Opera House). She receives commissions for her work and has written and arranged many choral pieces.
