All My Life (Toda Mi Vida)

"I've been waiting all my life to make this record.

You will discover the many ways I chose to express myself. From the raw ballads of my Mexican heritage to going even deeper with a Ladino Folk Song... all the way to the Brazilian Jazz that brings me joy daily.

Every performance is an adventure. With blind faith and having taught myself to speak Spanish, know that I have put my heart and soul into this very special project... with a limited budget and over a period of only 8 days... I sang songs which I hope you will enjoy listening to over and over."
-REBEKAH DEL RIO

PRESS BIOGRAPHY :-
"Singer/songwriter Rebekah Del Rio, as seen in David Lynch's Award Winning film Mulholland Drive, began her professional music career when she was just 11 years old.

Her unique style is perhaps best represented in her signature song, the wrenchingly beautiful ballad "Llorando," a Spanish-language version of Roy Orbison's "Crying," which strongly evokes both her Latin roots as well as such vocal influences as Patsy Cline, Linda Ronstadt, Vikki Carr, and Karen Carpenter. In 1994, on the strength of that song, Rebekah moved to Nashville where she was signed to Irving Azoff's label, Giant Records, through Warner Brothers Records.

Rebekah opened for Rod Stewart at the 25th Annual WEA convention, and cut her first album, called "Nobody's Angel." The title track was released on a compilation album for WEA, and the single shot to #2 in Holland. Ms. Del Rio then went on to do a recording project for James Stroud at DreamWorks' Nashville Label. She was cast as a principal character in "The Next Big Thing," an animated series produced by Bob Doyle (Manager for Garth Brooks), where Rebekah plays a sultry Mexican-American country singer trying to make it in the music business. Not a far stretch from the truth.

Before moving back to Los Angeles, David Lynch cast Rebekah as herself in his nightmarish hymn to L.A., Mulholland Drive. In a pivotal scene, Rebekah plays an otherworldly cabaret singer at the dilapidated, near empty Club Silencio who sings an electrifying a capella rendition of "Llorando."

In a Village Voice interview, Lynch describes his partnership with Rebekah as a "happy accident": Her noteworthy performance has been universally praised as "a dazzling star turn," by John Powers in the L.A. Weekly, to "uniquely twisted," and "utterly enthralling," by Gregory Weinkauf from the New Times.

Ms. Del Rio was received with a standing ovation at the 12th Annual Rainforest Foundation Benefit Concert at Carnegie Hall in April 2002 after singing "Llorando" a capella. Rebekah was joined by Sting ,Sir Elton John , and James Taylor clad in sombreros and maracas while she sang "La Bamba" for a tribute to the 60's. Rebekah has performed with the Royal Philharmonic in England and was featured in Divas Simply Singing. She has also performed for Patti LaBelle at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.

Ms. Del Rio is also on the soundtrack for the Sundance award-winning movie, Quattro Noza, planned for release in 2004. Rebekah is currently writing for her Nashville/Los Angeles based Music Publishing Company, Baja Basement Music, and is represented by Brian Loucks at Creative Artists Agency."
