Rebekah White Williams joins us on the podcast to talk about the stories behind the writing of the songs MAKE ROOM and REST ON US. 

Learn more about working with Rebekah for songwriter coaching and song critiques.

We are thrilled to welcome professional songwriter Rebekah White Williams (Make Room, Rest On Us) to the WW family as songwriter coach.

Rebekah White is a Nashville-based songwriter who discovered her passion for music at a young age. As a young woman, she regularly led worship in her church and in 2002 she ventured beyond the church’s walls and landed a job on tour working for the multi-platinum, alt-rock group Green Day.

This experience opened doors for Rebekah and before she knew it, she was working with artists like Justin Timberlake and Fergie. After the arrival of her son in 2012, Rebekah stepped away from her artist career and jumped into songwriting full-time.

Two of her most beloved songs she’s co-written, “Make Room” and “Rest on Us” have been recorded by multiple worship leaders and movements such as Maverick City Music, Brandon Lake, UpperRoom, Vertical Worship, and more!

Both songs are currently in the Top 50 per CCLI’s active SongSelect charts and collectively account for millions of streams between releases.

Vince Wilcox has enjoyed a lifetime of rich experiences as music industry professional, attorney, educator, and author.

Starting in the warehouse of Nashville’s Benson Records in 1979, Vince rose through the ranks to eventually become vice president of marketing before resigning in 1991 to write and tour as an artist for five years. Along the way, he recorded three albums, had dozens of songs published, and was executive producer for 70 projects—including a Dove Award-winning album. His artistic collaboration with Don Pardoe earned them four #1 Christian Country singles and the industry’s Horizon Award for Best New Artist in 1997.

In the late ’90s, Vince returned to the corporate setting as vice president of BMG’s Provident Music Distribution, overseeing sales for such artists as Jars of Clay, Michael W. Smith, Fred Hammond, and Third Day. In 2001, he left Provident to form VanLiere-Wilcox Artist Management, co-managing NewSong, Todd Agnew, comedian John Morgan, and the Winter Jam Tour Spectacular. Later that decade, he entered law school to become an entertainment attorney. While in law school, he served in the Office of the Public Defender for the 21st Judicial District in Tennessee.

After graduating from law school and earning admission to the Tennessee Bar, he became general manager of Belden Street Music Publishing and Discover Worship, an online music service for choir directors and worship leaders. After teaching part-time in the Skinner School of Business & Technology at Trevecca Nazarene University for four years, Vince was promoted to assistant professor and full-time director of the Music Business program in the fall of 2020. 

Vince holds a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies (Distinguished Major) from the University of Virginia, a Master of Science in Education (Guidance & Counseling) from Old Dominion University, and a Doctor of Jurisprudence from Nashville School of Law. 

His recent book, How to Make a Living in the Music Business, joins self-published devotional studies on the Gospel of Mark and the Lord's Prayer. Vince lives with his wife and extended family in Franklin, Tennessee, with their beloved dogs.
