Yamagata became the vocalist for the Chicago funk-fusion band Bumpus, spending six years with them while writing and recording three albums and touring the country. However, she began to write songs which took on a style that conflicted with the funk vision of the band. In 2001, Yamagata decided to take those songs and pursue a solo career.

She also teamed with with Toots & the Maytals to sing Blame On Me.

She also worked with Ryan Adams & The Cardinals on their first album Cold Roses. On that album, where she is credited as: "Our little sis", she did some vocals and played "listenable" piano on the tracks 'Let It Ride', 'Cold Roses' and 'Friends'.

Yamagata sang with Rhett Miller on Fireflies from his 2006 release The Believer.

Her songs have featured on several TV shows, including How I Met Your Mother, ER , Nip/Tuck, Men in Trees, Alias, One Tree Hill, Brothers & Sisters and The O.C., to which she made a guest performance in season 2. Yamagata also contributed a song to Mandy Moore's 2007 album, Wild Hope. She also toured with Moore, opening many of her shows around the country.

Yamagata's second studio album is Elephants...Teeth Sinking Into Heart. That album was released on October 7, 2008.

On October 9th, 2008, a two-song live acoustic video performance premiered on LiveDaily Sessions, featuring the songs "Faster" and "Sunday Afternoon".

Her highly acclaimed CD Cheasapeake premiered on October 11, 2011, and was followed by an extensive tour.

Be Be Your Love
by Rachael Yamagata

If I could take you away
Pretend I was queen
What would you say
Would you think I'm unreal
Cause everybody's got their way I should feel

Everybody's talking how I can't be your love
But I want want wanna be your love
Want to be your love, for real
Everybody's talking how I can't be your love
But I want to be your love
Want to be your love for real
Want to be your everything

Everything's falling, and I am included in that
Oh, how I try to be just okay
Yeah, but all I ever really wanted
Was a little piece of you

Everybody's talking how I can't be your love
But I want want wanna be your love
Want to be your love for real
Everything will be alright
If you just stay the night

Please, sir, don't you walk away
Everybody's talking how I can't be your love
But I want want wanna be your love
Want to be your love for real
