Although they grew up on opposite sides of USA, Riley in Seattle, Washington, and Vivian in Lexington, Virginia, the two had an instant musical connection upon meeting in 2018.The pair has been collaborating since then, honing their sound & playing hundreds of shows.
“Viv & Riley’s sound is old-soul roots music to its core, elegantly combining a traditional backbone with the fresh iconic melodies of future-leaning indie-folk, and the tightly wound vocal harmonies of the old-time and classic country music they came from. The songwriting has evolved as well, from the world-weary, stripped-down country songs they’re known for to indie songwriting that turns sweetly sad and gently sardonic. In both preserving traditional music and bringing their own original folk music to new territories and audiences, it is clear that Viv & Riley have much to do with the present and future of roots music.
“A kaleidoscopic roots-country act with a whole new horizon of possibilities. Imaginary People sounds like if Gillian Welch and David Rawlings made their Golden Hour!” — Bandcamp
“These songs — accessible, sumptuous, enchanting — belie an impressive and hard-won finesse.” — No Depression
