Photo by Robert Knight Rebecca Laird isn't exactly the type of person you'd expect to spring to mind when talking about a blues musician. Yet the 20-year-old guitar slinger from Houston, Texas, has already made quite a splash in the blues community.
While finding a redheaded, female blues guitarist is rare, (although certainly not unheard of, take Bonnie Raitt for example), those aren't the only reasons that Rebecca is turning heads.
Blending modern musical sensibilities with roots that run as deep as the Mississippi River, Rebecca’s approach is like a breath of fresh air to an American art form that is oft overlooked and under appreciated. http://rebeccalairdmusic.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/play-crossroads-article.html
