Becky Barksdale


Somehow this artist had slipped through my radar, I had purchased her first album years ago after hearing a track on a House of Blues compilation album and instantly falling in love with her sound, but afterwards I somehow lost track of her. Going through my old cds looking for what I wanted to download to the Ipod I saw the album and instantly remembered. I loved this album when it first came out, I can't believe I lost track of her.
The album I have is Becky's first album, Real Live. Since than she's released two more cds, Cowgirl Blues and Out of the Blue. Becky is from Port Arthur Texas, home of the legendary Janis Joplin. She started performing at the age of 16 and at one point played with Canned Heat. During his Dangerous tour she was the lead guitarsit for Michael Jackson.
She's currently working on a new album. You can bet that I'm going to be on the lookout for this one. And she's going to be a Spotlight on my site Voices to hear. The song is "Satisify Me" the song I heard from the HOB album and fell in love with.
