What press has said about Rebecca: “Rebecca Cole’s eponymous three song EP (Mix-O-Rama) breaks nearly every rule. Opener “Tidal Wave” is a slow, soulful ballad, “Gates of Heaven” is contemporary Christian blues, and “Flavila Cates” is sweetly country. Cole’s self-assured vocals and excellent accompaniment land her short disc into the Watch This Artist file.” Margaret Moser, The Austin Chronicle, August 1, 2003 “Rebecca Cole’s style is diverse, ranging from original folk to rock to blues. But her voice makes people sit up and listen.” www.kut.org (90.5FM), Austin Music Minute, January 14, 2004 “An eclectic mix of heartfelt gospel, earthy blues and hook-laden pop, Rebecca Cole’s “Drink the Rain” heralds the arrival of a distinctive new musical voice. Music straight from the heart and at once introspective and exuberant plus great guitar work and backing vocals from special guest artist and local legend Carolyn Wonderland.” Steve Uhler, Barnes and Noble CD review, The Austin-American Statesman contributor, January 2002
