Interview

Where did you grow up?

Jeremy was born in San Bernardino, California, and Rebecca was born in Los Angeles, California.  Due to a family move, Jeremy ultimately spent several of his growing up years in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  But, he eventually returned to California where he met and married Rebecca in Visalia, CA, where she was living with her family and which is now Jeremy and Rebecca's home.

What made you realize that music was your path?

Jeremy and Rebecca each have been involved in music in some capacity since they were children.  Jeremy began playing piano and writing songs at the age of three.  Being born into a very musical family, music filled his entire life.  He always knew his future would be centered around his first love.  Similarly, Rebecca cannot remember a time that she didn't love to sing.  Initially inspired by her older sister's love of song, she found her voice at a very young age. Because of her unique ability to connect with audiences, it has always been clear to listeners that her gift would fill her future.

How would you describe the music that you typically create?

Jeremy and Rebecca create music with a sophisticated mix of style and genre.  Each stylistic leaning represents types of music they each grew up loving.  But, more importantly, Jeremy always writes music which supports the lyric.  If the message of the song can best be communicated with a particular style, it is utilized without Jeremy and Rebecca feeling locked into a certain stylistic box.  In fact, because of Jeremy and Rebecca's ability to effortlessly move within this broad sonic landscape, their music has a familiar sound, yet remains original and, at times, unlike anything you've ever heard.  In spite of this diversity of style, there is a cohesiveness of sound from song to song, and it can be noted that every song is uniquely "Jeremy and Rebecca".

Who are your biggest musical influences?

Jeremy and Rebecca each have strong Gospel music backgrounds because of their involvement in church music throughout their growing up years.  Since so many modern styles of music share this influence, they found it very natural to spread out into multiple genres.  Thus, their personal musical tastes have been extremely broad, and they have been influenced in some way by everything they have been exposed to.

What makes your music unique?

With large, cinematic production and dynamic arrangements, their songs never lose their ability to connect with the listener.  And, while lyrically expansive, each song remains poignant and profound.  And, by not forcing themselves to cater to only one genre, their music is perfectly married to, and supportive of, the lyric.  Sophisticated, yet fresh.  Current, yet enduring.

Has there been one particular moment in your musical career that you're most proud of?

Jeremy has had a lifelong dream of one day writing something his father, an accomplished orchestra and choral director, could conduct.  This opportunity came when Jeremy and Rebecca were tracking their debut album.  They brought Jeremy's dad out to Nashville with them for the string sessions and surprised him by asking him to conduct strings on a song Jeremy had written for his own son.  Needless to say, it was a moment that no one who was present will ever forget.

What's next for you?

Having just completed their debut album, Jeremy and Rebecca are now performing to support the project.  Additionally, they continue to be involved in their professions, Jeremy as a production company owner, and Rebecca as a Special Education Teacher.
