Singer-songwriter Becca Stevens has garnered numerous accolades during the past year. Her album Regina (GroundUp) was the subject of a 5-star review in the May issue of DownBeat, and she was the co-winner (along with Jen Shyu) of the category Rising Star–Female Vocalist in the 2017 DownBeat Critics Poll.
Now she has teamed up with another talented young artist, singer/multi-instrumentalist Jacob Collier, for a whimsical, amazing music video: “Bathtub.” Collier, a two-time Grammy winner who’s known for his dynamic shows in which he loops tapes, allowing him to accompany himself, released In My Room (Membran) in 2016.
