“They have so much fun on stage” – Missy Burgess, Chrysalis, 2011
Ottawa-based Elizabeth Riley Band has a raw, contagious sound, with original songs and interpretations inspired by bluegrass harmonies, folk classics, and alt and traditional country music.
Wielding banjo, acoustic and electric guitars, harmonica, djembe, stand-up snare and a porch board, these four singer-songwriters speak out about personal, social and political realities. Their songs are infused with women’s lived experience.
Vocally driven with an electrified edge, Elizabeth Riley Band has captivated audiences at an eclectic range of venues.
