"You've got some notes there in your voice that make
an older person feel faint.
...makes cowboys order an extra beer."
~ Garrison Keillor
Her soprano is “Clear and expressive.
[Her] voice can go gritty at times or break appropriately
or soar to ethereal heights or drift off in a whisper.” - Bluegrass Unlimited
Becky Schlegel has a gift
for taking life’s experiences and transforming them into songs that
are passionate and unique. Her music is a fusion of folk, bluegrass and
country that is mesmerizing.
Repeatedly recognized by the International
Bluegrass Music Association as an outstanding songwriter, Schlegel sings
with an effortless, angelic and wistful soprano that accentuates the meanings
of her insightful lyrics. Her latest CD, “Dandelion,” includes
four songs ranked among “That Nashville Sound’s Top 100 songs
of 2010.”
While living in Minnesota, she performed
several times for Garrison Keillor’s Minnesota Public Radio program,
“A Prairie Home Companion.” She’s received several awards
from the Minnesota Music Academy.
Schlegel now lives in Nashville, and Crossings
is delighted to bring her back to Southeast Minnesota audiences. Schlegel
hasn’t forgotten her roots, but her heart and her music know no
bounds. She continues to explore, dream, write and sing songs of life
and love – of heartache and redemption. Her music is diverse; a
compelling, almost spiritual ride that is the embodiment of a fascinating
woman and her engaging stories.
