Marking Rebecca Anderson’s boundary-pushing foray into the music industry, ‘In The Beginning’ provides a vibrant and vivid take on what matters most to the Los Angeles-based songstress: her religion and unwavering faith in god. Now, not everyone is bound to resonate with that, but if you are willing to give it a go, next to such meaningful and purposeful songwriting, you’ll also find contemporary pop goodness and Anderson’s evocative, elegant vocals.
Boasting a largely luscious and angelic tone, Rebecca wraps listeners into a blissful, soothing listening experience, one that’s highly cathartic and rich in textures and harmonies. The production does a good job of building a tapestry of liminal synth elements, well-balanced by urban-oriented, bouncy beats. Overall, as a debut effort goes, this is quite an impressive record, one that positively kick-started Rebecca Anderson’s career. For the keen listeners, the American creative has also now released a more playful follow-up, ‘Forever Grateful’.
Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘In The Beginning’, Anderson explains: “I’m incredibly excited to share ‘In the Beginning’ with the world. This song was written last year during a period when I took time away to be with God and to allow Him to pour into me and subsequently pour out of me this deep revelation about the infinite love and nature of the creator. I hope it resonates with listeners on a deep level”.
