Rebekah's Tape Archive

Rebekah's Tape was a band that grew out of a group of adolescent friends in Central Illinois making experimental & "indie rock" type home recordings in the late 1990s under their tiny DIY cassette / multimedia label "MAKESHIFT Music, etc." Their friend Rebekah gave them a tape one day and asked if they would fill it. Unlike many of their recording experiments, some of the music on 'Rebekah's Tape' was possible to reproduce in a live setting as a band, so they decided to perform under this name. Their music could at times fit into categories of psychedelic, experimental, indie rock, shoegaze, ambient, lo-fi, art rock, art pop, and probably some others. Always ready to buck categories & conventions, they also made a "silly" album. They existed in a number of different lineups and iterations from 1998 until their last performance in 2009.
