Riiver Brukes

Riiver Brukes has been making waves her way. Scottish born and currently Canadian, Riiver Brukes is a prime example of someone not requiring a lot of teaching. Her unusual gritty and soulful voice brings a powerful edge to some amazing hook laden songs, and is influenced by a broad spectrum of genres and artists, but especially her passion for jazz and blues. Rising through a foundation built from various bands including pop band Cicero (#11 European Dance Charts), Edinburgh’s very own Riiver Brukes releases her first solo album, ‘Reformed Soul’ (co-written and produced by Joe Segreti: Bruno Pelletier, Mooch): An album that oozes nothing less than the attitude, character and soul of this Scottish Lassie.

‘Break The Chains‘ is a song about equality and rights for all human beings. The color of a person’s skin is irrelevant as is their place of origin, their personal beliefs, or anything else. What really matters is what is in their heart and their actions toward others. We should never lose sight of that – and that is why we must break the chains that divide us.
