Becca-chan at Otakon 2009

Otakon announces one of two Sunday musical performances - American singer/songwriter Becca, also known as Becca-chan, an up-and-coming artist who is gaining international fans. Becca moved from her home in Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles to begin writing and recording songs with Meredith Brooks. After spending some months developing her sound, she began to play live shows along the West Coast. Becca’s high-energy live performances began to grab the attention of the music industry and many new fans.

By late 2007, Becca was offered a record deal by Sony Music. In June 2008, Becca debuted her first EP in Japan. Since then, she has performed at the famous Japanese music festival, Summersonic. She has released a second EP, and her first full album, “Alive!!”, debuted at #2 on the international charts in Japan on November 5. Her single “I’m Alive!” not only topped the international single charts, but made her the only international artist to rank in the top 100 of Japan’s overall single charts.
