Rebecca Carpitcher rounds out the trio by singing the alto part. She is honored by being the first Native American graduate of Messenger College in Joplin, Missouri. Her younger years were spent playing the bass guitar in church, as well as traveling with Rick and their sister Rachel in the group known as the Revelators.
