Rebecca Hancock

Singer, songwriter, guitarist and keyboards player. Born in England, Rebecca moved to Australia when she was 8 years old, and settled in Sydney, New South Wales. Hancock returned to England aged 19 to audition for ballet companies, but abandoned that idea after many years of study — moving back to Australia and joining her first band Watusi Now in 1983. She then went onto sing with Louis Tillett's 'Paris Green (3)' and its off-shoot 'Paris Pink'. Hancock then toured internationally with Ed Kuepper (1988-89) as a backing singer and keyboards player. She took a break from music to go back to university and to devote time to her family. Returned to music when Gerry Kortegast asked her to sing on his band Desert Boot's second album. Rebecca then engaged in a project of her own which was backed by The Prison Wives (including musicians: John Sandow, Nick Fisher (2) and Mark Bradridge) for the recording of "Somewhere to Land" (2002). Hancock also released an album in 2010 "Under My Bed".
