From southern roots...

From Raleigh-Durham, NC to international waters, from honky tonk country to classical music, dance, and theatre repertoire, to the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, NC, Fancy Marie is truly a virtuoso of the stage. Decades of training, performance, choreography, and instruction experience have founded a rich and innovative life for this professional vocalist, musician, actress, model, and movement artist. Forever on a quest to attain a higher level of excellence in stage artistry, Fancy remains both a humble student and teacher of the intricate craft of performance and creation. It is her goal that ultimately these gifts which were so graciously bestowed to her be of benefit to those communities around her, with which she is so blessed to be a part.

Born and raised in humble beginnings in the summer of 1985 in Raleigh/Durham, NC, Fancy's earliest love for the performing arts was cultivated by listening to classic country artists like Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, and Hank Williams to name a few. Between the sounds of these pioneers ringing from her grandparents' old radio and her family and teachers' persistent encouragement, Fancy knew from a very young age that it was a stage life for which she was bound. This keen knowing propelled her to obtain a degree in Dance Performance/Choreography and Musical Theatre from Elon University. With movement, voice, dance, and acting training in tow, Rebecca set about to live a versatile life in the studio and stage.       



Rebecca has performed with regional dance, theatre, and industrial companies, cruise lines and theme parks, country, blues, funk, jazz, and folk bands, and has had the pleasure of posing as a dance, movement, fashion, and editorial model. For over a decade, she enjoyed the life of a traveling vagabond, touring both nationally and internationally for diverse audiences and venues. Finally in 2012, Rebecca sought out a community for which she could cultivate longevity within an artistic community. She then returned to her southern roots in the lively avant-garde mountain town of Asheville, NC and has cherished calling it home ever since. Currently, she a full time singer and songwriter in Western North Carolina. She is the lead singer and songwriter of the band, Fancy and the Gentlemen, folk/americana duo Samson and Delilah,   and also sings with Asheville based projects like Dirty Logic and the Floyd Philharmonic. She dances, choreographs and teaches with The Asheville Ballet, Warren Wilson College, and other theatres like Southern Appalachian Repertory Theatre.
