Becky Hill, born in 1994 in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, and raised in Bewdley, is a singer and songwriter known for her work in dance music. She began her musical journey at age 14, performing with a band called Shaking Trees. Her rise to fame continued when she reached the semifinals on the first season of The Voice UK. Since then, she has released two top 10 albums and collaborated with high-profile artists like David Guetta and Rudimental. She won the Brit Award for Best Dance Act in 2022 and 2023. Her latest album, Rebecca, is set to release on 13 November. As a teenager, Becky fell victim to a modelling scam, where she was taken by an agency that charged her family money for services with no return. Her mother, fearing financial strain, kept the situation secret from her father. Though Becky was once considered cute, her childhood was marked by instability. Her parents were in second marriages and had five children between them, some living with them and others not. Despite the chaos, she always felt loved. Her family had diverse musical tastes, from her mother's classic rock to her brother's aggressive hip-hop and drum'n'bass. Her mother encouraged her to find a passion, and after a school talent show where Becky performed a song, her parents began to consider her future in music. Support came from local figures in Bewdley, including a music teacher and Andy Brown, who helped her develop her skills by buying her a guitar and funding lessons. This support gave her a rare sense of nurturing without pressure. Her teenage years were challenging—she smoked weed and struggled with self-image—but found solace in drum'n'bass music. At 17, she entered The Voice UK, seeking escape from her small town. Though she didn’t win, the experience provided her with valuable connections and the chance to move to London. Her 20s were difficult, marked by personal struggles, including a sexual assault and being dropped by her record label. Despite these challenges, she found strength and eventually achieved success with featured tracks. She prioritized her family’s well-being, buying homes for her parents and brother’s family. Now in her 30s, Becky is more focused on expressing her own artistic voice rather than trying to please others. She acknowledges that the music industry is unpredictable and has worked on overcoming self-doubt through therapy. Despite the pressures, she feels at peace with her current path and values the kindness she has rediscovered.
