1. Becky, who is the most amazingand greatest female rock artistof all time, has satdown with us to have a
casual chat.Shetalks about all of her music experiences,upbringingand much more! Your guys will beable to
see a different sideof her, that no-one has ever seen befor, incredibleright!? We get up closeand personal
with the queen of rock.
So Becky, why don’t you tell us a bit more about yourself, maybe some things that we don’t
know?
- Right, this will behard sinceevryone seems to now everything about me! Well,my full name is
Rebecca Rose Harrison and I was born in Harrow. I lived in a quiet area and there wasn’t many
people about. I also went to a private school in London, then kent col legebefore I decided to go to
university in Surrey to study music. The university thingdidn’t lastlongthough because i dropped
out after 2 months! I guess something that people don’t know about me is that I actually used to
hate rock music!Weird right!?
That is completely weird considering youre now one of the greatest rock artists of all time! When
did you start getting into rock music then?
- I think it was when i started to play the electric guitar.I originaly used to play a normal guitar but I
kind of started to find itboring. As i said previously,I did used to hate rock music but the electric
guitar justput a whole new perspective on it for me. Everyone already knows my dad Jimmy Page,
growing up and listeningto his music was justweird,becausei was like,‘wow thats my dad’and I
guess that also gotme into likingrock music.
Can you name a few of your musical heroes?
- Thats a hard one becausethere are so many great musicians outthere. I have to stay true to
rock music and listmy heroes from that genre though! I guess I would say;Linkin Park,
Guns n Roses and my favourite, Hayley Williams.Sheis such an amazingartistand generally a
really cool person.I would loveto collab with her one day, that would be a dream!
What have been your most memorable and major performances yet?
- I have taken part in quite a few persomances duringmy career, but some of the most memorable

2. ones would have to be Leeds Fest and T In The Park.They were so bloody amazing and the
atmosphere was justout of this world. So many people were there and itwas justgreat to
see them singingto MY songs.It was justincredibleseeingso many artists performingand doing
their own thing.
What has been the greatest day of your life? Im dying to know!
-I think that one of the greatest days of my lifewould have to be when i released my firstalbum
called gunners that was one of the happiestand proudest moments in my lifebecausei did that on
my own! Itwas a great success for me and my team and the public justseemed to love it. We had
been working on it for so longand it was justgreat that itwas finally released and outthere for
everyone to enjoy and listen to.
I’ve heard a cheeky little rumour that your releasing a new album soon, is that true?
- Oh man! How did you find out!? I did want to keep that a secret and justdrop it
when it was done but never mind. Yes its true i am releasinga new albumsoon, and it does
feature some amazing collabsso youll haveto keep a look out! Im not sayingany more
about it!
Thats great becky! Im excited and will make sure to keep a look out. So do you plan on going on tour after
the albums released?
- That could be a possibility,i mean i haven’t really spokeaboutit to my management yet so i will
have to clear thatwith them first.I would love to go on tour, its a great experience that
means a lot as i can interactwith the fans.Its a good feeling. I also get to travel whilst
