Episode 1: LA LIVE with RON COBERT interviews Becca Nieman
In this episode, Ron explores the life and legacy of Connie Van Dyke, a fearless and talented singer, songwriter, and actress who rose from Virginia to the heights of Motown and Hollywood stardom. Joined by actress Becca, who channels Van Dyke in a nostalgic 1960s-style music video, the show uncovers how Sammy Kaplan of Lovelane Music discovers Van Dyke’s grit, charm, and presence captured the attention of Berry Gordy, landed her early Motown recordings, and launched a multifaceted entertainment career. Through reflection, rare insight, and a tribute performance of her original song “I Know a Place,” LA LIVE highlights a woman ahead of her time—bold, romantic, and in full control of her voice.
