Before millions of television viewers knew her as the singer of "Come As You Are" on NBC's hit reality show The Voice, Rebecca Loebe paid her dues the old-fashioned way, playing hundreds of shows across the country.

Her 2010 release, Mystery Prize, spent nine weeks on the Americana Top 40 chart, and she has racked up an impressive collection of awards, including the 2009 Kerrville New Folk Award, the 2010 Falcon Ridge Emerging Artist award, and the 2011 ASCAP Plus Award.

Loebe has shared the stage with folk luminaries, including Mary Chapin Carpenter, Emerson Hart, Ellis Paul, and many others, and was a featured artist on National Public Radio's Folk Alley's Best New Folk playlist.
