MITCH RIVERS

Mitch Rivers (28) writes soulful folk & americana songs, characterized by his endearing voice. However, a hungry, restless soul lurks beneath all that pastoral splendor. His upcoming album muses between the fleeting city life and the open, vast plains.

The musician living in Haarlem once played in punk bands, but became increasingly fascinated by artists like Otis Rush, Jonathan Wilson and Ray LaMontagne. His music seeps from the pores of the soul: naked, honest, sexy and vulnerable. The blues remain as a watchful shadow within the impeccable arrangements of Rivers and his band.
