'This Woman's Heart' is set to be released worldwide in two halves throughout 2020, beginning with ‘1’ which launched on 27th March 2020. It features her signature vocal-driven power pop, influenced by soulful female icons like Annie Lennox, Kate Bush and Adele.
"This album is very much about a woman’s journey through her twenties, shedding some innocence, learning important life lessons and emerging as a very different person at the back end," Riva explains. "With age, I've opened up more; this first half is the dark half, the dark heart, and is written about the trials and tribulations of those wilderness years.”
Riva Taylor is a successful artist who is doing things on her terms. A strong woman who has reinvented herself as a singer, songwriter, label owner and women's activist. And, the world has taken notice.
Fans may remember Riva as 12-year-old Becky-Jane Taylor who became the youngest person ever to sign to EMI Records and graced the stages with the likes of Alfie Boe, Katie Melua and Usher.
The Riva Taylor era began in 2014 when she was chosen to record 'The Creed' the epic soundtrack song for the Assassin's Creed video game series. And, success followed, a remix of 2017's single 'Deeper Than Us' hit the Music Week chart at Number 2 receiving support from DJ Pete Tong at Radio One and Tiesto. A follow-up, 2018's sad, soulful and stirring 'My Mouth', built upon Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata', found its way onto Elton John's Beats 1 radio show Rocket Hour, who declared he 'loved it.' By the summer of 2019, she found herself premiering her new material supporting the iconic Barbra Streisand at the British Summer Time festival in London's Hyde Park.
Riva has recently released the first part of her debut album 'This Woman's Heart.1' with part 2 set to be released later in 2020. It features her signature vocal-driven power pop, influenced by soulful female icons like Annie Lennox, Kate Bush and Adele. The seven songs that make up the first of the two releases – as inventive as they are evocative - could barely be more rent with heartbreak and introspection. Riva Taylor has spent the past six years rebuilding and remoulding herself to become a mature and compelling artist in her own right. It was her experiences during her childhood career touring the world under the wings of superstars, that have laid the solid foundations for her authentic songwriting today. This woman's heart is wide open. Sink in.
