“Following the thread” is the phrase singer-songwriter Rebecca Martin uses to characterize her free-minded approach to composition. And it’s the method by which she developed the 13 songs on SHE (Sunnyside), her first solo album. Accompanied by her own guitar, Martin unfurls a cycle of tunes marked by a bracing, bittersweet intimacy, offering profound insights into loneliness, inchoate desire and hard-won perseverance.”   – Matt R. Lohr, “Rebecca Martin Makes Her Solo Stand“

“Martin’s songs are often populated by balancing acts. People literally fall in several of her tunes. About one character, she says, “I guess one foot on the ground will simply have to do.” Unspoken or vague allusions to darkness, trouble, brokenness, of the physical and emotional kind, are often subtly implied. In the kickoff track, “Play for Me,” Martin sings, “Music is for anyone who’s open to hear / There’s nothing between us but notes in the air.” The beauty of She is found in that air.” – Seth Rogovoy, Chronogram Magazine

“In this episode of Wheels Off, acclaimed vocalist, songwriter, and activist Rebecca Martin joins Rhett for a candid conversation about her decades-long music career, her passion for water protection and civic engagement, and the release of her new acoustic album, She.Rebecca shares insights from her early days in New York’s jazz scene to the deeply personal process behind her latest solo work. The two also discuss the intersection of music and activism, the value of creative solitude, raising children in a creative household, and learning to let go of social media in favor of real connection.”  – Rhett Miller, “Wheels Off”
