Rebecca Porter, originally from Guam and now based in Harrisonburg, Virginia, brings raw authenticity to her music, defined by her honey-smooth voice and sharp, irreverent songwriting. Her lyrics courageously explore personal themes such as trauma, discrimination as a Pacific Islander woman in rural Virginia, and the complex challenges of motherhood.

 Her musical journey began over a decade ago as a member of local cover bands, where she honed her skills and gained local acclaim. However, it was during the pandemic that Porter redirected her creative energy, eventually releasing two EPs: "Prime Rainbow Conditions" and "Queen of the Local." The latter marked a pivotal move towards independence, propelling Porter to national and international recognition through her grassroots efforts.

 Recently, Porter joined Rissi Palmer's esteemed Color Me Country Class of 2024 and made her debut on NPR's Mountain Stage. Her music also captured the interest of Ed Helms, editor of Good Country, who selected her for his curated playlist, 'Ed's Picks'. These achievements underscore Porter's artistic evolution and the broad appeal of her music, touching listeners well beyond her local beginnings.

 Listeners near and far have come to appreciate and connect with the depth of Porter's emotional landscapes. She continues to captivate audiences with her musical journey that embodies unwavering determination, creativity, and the transformative power of storytelling through music.
