FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE –
The songwriter and performer known as
Riley has released his new flagship EP record, titled, “Who Am I?”
The album is comprised of six original tracks written, performed,
recorded and produced by Riley, himself (sometimes billed as Riley X)
for an approximate total listening time of 30 minutes. The album has
been released on the Maximus Records Limited music record label. A
jazzy, bluesy album full of soul and groove, “Who Am I?” by Riley
is one of the most intriguing and beautiful albums to be released
this decade.
Riley himself is a citizen of the
United Kingdom. He has been playing music for over 30 years in a wide
variety of capacities. At nine years old he received his first
guitar. He played the saxophone for five years, as well as the tenor
horn and the baritone trombone at Wolverhampton's Heath Park School.
By 13 he had entered into the serious study of music theory,
particularly that of the jazz and classical genres. He would continue
these studies in earnest for the next four years.
Later he gained a four-year employment
with the Zip Theatre Company as a session player. He relates the
experience as one of the most enjoyable of his life. From here he
went to the Kuumba Arts Movements organization. Today, he plays in
various modes for youth musical workshops, music therapy for the
elderly, and young offender institutions. His performances include
such disparate styles as classical and Bhangra.
He has played venues all over the world
at scores of well respected venues. He has appeared on BBC programs
such as the children's show, “Blue Peter,” and the popular
series, “Surprise, Surprise.” He has acted as a music manager and
has excellent abilities as a recording artist, producer, engineer and
masterer as well.
“Who Am I?” by Riley is available
online worldwide.
