With her slightily twanged and swallowed vowel vocals giving her an easy listenin' sound akin to Norah Jones, acoustic-guitar-playing singer/ songwriter Rebecca Rego's "Learnin to be Lonley" is a highly polished six-song debut...-- David C. Eldredge Illinois Entertainer "Rebecca Rego’s sultry, jazzy vocals strike just the right temperature over the mellow acoustic notes that she and her band mates strum their way through. Combining a hint of upbeat optimism with the road-weary hesitation of any good lounge act, REGO sets a soundtrack of feel-good skepticism that makes these bitter days just a bit more tolerable." - Chicago Innerview
.. "Rebecca Rego is a wonderful singer/songwriter with a hauntingly beautiful voice." -Micheal Teach Chicago Acoustic Underground
Check out Rebecca's West Side Radio Interview!!!!!!!
"On her six-song debut, Milwaukee native and current Chicagoan Rebecca Rego is about as introspectively folkie as an independent singer-songwriter can be. Her youthful tone and occasionally unexpected phrasing make all that inward reflection more appealing than it might be in lesser hands. The couple of occasions where she exhibits a slight country twang serve her well. Anyone seeking a CD that spans the appeal of Ani DiFranco and Sarah McLachlan may do themselves a favor by learning to be lonely with Rego." - Jamie Lee Rake Milwaukee Shepherd Express

"GREAT!!!!.....Solid Songs.." -Michael Fernandez The Patriot News Harrisburg, PA
"Delivered with poignant patience, bouncy buoyancy and anything in-between, lady folkster Rebecca Rego has justly attracted comparison to the likes of Patty Griffin & Emmylou Harris with her song-writing and execution. What really shines though is her vocal similarity to Norah Jones and her quirky likeness to Regina Spektor"--Ant Standring Glasswerk Media UK
Learning To Be Lonely is the promising debut EP from Chicago based singer/songerwriter Rebecca Rego............Apart from an assured and literate songwriting style, the most appealing thing about Learning To Be Lonely is Rego’s voice, which is by turns warm, intimate and playful. -Just a Modern Rock Blog |
