Perth singer-songwriter Riley Pearce learnt guitar at an early age and took up performing as a teen, busking at farmers markets and open mic nights.
Breaking through in 2016 with hit single ‘Brave’, which has over 19 million plays on Spotify, Pearce went on to win the WA Music Folk Song of the Year Award in 2017 and has had his music featured on US TV shows Shameless and Shadowhunters.
Having supported the likes of LifeHouse, Lord Huron, Tash Sultana, Lucy Rose and Kim Churchill, Pearce can’t wait to tour his new album, posting on Instagram, “Can’t wait to share these songs with you. I don’t tour much, so it would fill my soul to see these shows packed out.”
