Cadence DanO Rebecca Cave Creek Rebecca (Becky) Bessanson and Daniel (DanO) Ostdiek are an original ‘rock goes acoustic’ duo out of Phoenix, Arizona. Combining DanO’s expressive dynamics and percussive playing style with Becky’s powerfully sweet second soprano, they deliver heartfelt songs with the hope of healing humanity through song and a deep emotional connection. The two came together from vastly different backgrounds. DanO is originally from Nebraska, where he was well known for his electric guitar work in bands such as Such Sweet Thunder, releasing six full-length albums and sharing stages in the 90s with Blind Melon, the Dead Milkmen, along with performing 1300 plus live regional shows to packed houses where Such Sweet Thunder headlined. Becky’s powerful soprano was discovered by her church pastor’s wife at the age of eight, and since then, she has performed in professional church groups and several non-church related local and regional bands. Her early years were filled with music, and her early mentor was her father Allen, a Phoenix based working musician and guitar player who helped her to develop her own unique style and delivery. Becky is an Arizona native, and prior to connecting with DanO, held down lead singer duties in 60’s tribute bands, and was a resident at a musical monastery in Hampton Roads, Virginia. Currently residing in the historic art, mining and old-west town of Cave Creek, AZ, she works as a full-time nanny and house manager by day and writes, sings and performs with DanO by night. Citing her main singing influences such as Jefferson Airplane and Carole King, Becky is excited to be performing original material for the first time, and together with DanO, the two have compiled an extensive songbook from which to play the room. Their dynamic musical chemistry is known to draw an audience forward in their seat, Becky’s powerful and emotive voice a stunning foil to DanO’s superb guitar work. As a duo, they can be seen on stage in 2016 playing live shows in and around the Phoenix area and Northern AZ, they are also planning to release an album of their original songs in February 2016.
