Nobodys Girl
Nobodys Girl is a new trio formed by award-winning songwriters Betty Soo, Grace Pettis and Rebecca Loebe. Luscious harmony singers, effortless instrumentalists, seasoned touring artists they recognized what each can accomplish individually could be made all the stronger by collaboration. Now, the spark has been set, the fire lit. Their individual and collective fans are eating it up. A video of Fast Car garnered twenty-thousand views on Facebook within days of posting. The harmonies are thrilling; echoes of Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadts Trio recordings. The songs are powerful and spare. The stage presence confident and assured. Their collaboration has resulted in their forthcoming EP Waterline to be released in the fall on the Lucky Hound label. You may have seen Rebecca Loebe when she made her international television debut on the first season of NBCs The Voice. Her version of Nirvanas Come As You Are was one of the top-selling singles of that season, charting on iTunes around the world and inspiring Adam Levine to declare I just love listening to you sing.

She has garnered awards such as Mountain Stage NewSong Competition Winner and Big Top Chautauqua Songwriter of the Year. Bettysoos voice has been described as the perfect combination of strength, vulnerability, and clarity just perfect (Americana-UK), and her songwriting as beautiful, heart-wrenching and also edgy and unwavering (KUT). Grace Pettis is the winner of many of the nations most prestigious songwriting contests, including NPRs Mountain Stage NewSong Competition, where she also took Best Song honors. Sirius XM Program Director Mary Sue Twohy described Graces distinct, unaffected voice as a Wide open prairie, full of waving golden grains before menacing, dark thunderclouds. Graces songs have been recorded by many esteemed artists including three-time Grammy-nominated blues artist Ruthie Foster. She is currently recording her third studio album, expected later this year.
