‘lost connection’ by Arya River Promises Big Things to Come
Artist: Arya River Single: lost connection Genre: Neo-Soul, R&B, Alt-Pop Release Date: April 5th, 2024
Real eyes realize real eyes, and other historically potent adages: “Realize we lost connection and I don’t need your affection” sings Arya River like silk gliding over polished marble. ‘lost connection’ is effortlessly smooth and stylish with some of the tightest groove you’ll hear. Drawing inspiration from the timeless elegance of Erykah Badu, the charisma of Lauryn Hill, and the distinctive style of Solange, she establishes herself as a formidable presence in a scene brimming with talent.
In addition to Arya's captivating vocals and the seamless integration of instrumentals, her music showcases a remarkable synergy between melody and rhythm. Her band's exceptional musicianship coupled with her lyricism - which adds another layer of depth, with creative and charming narratives that resonate with authenticity - form a dynamic ensemble that elevates Arya's musical expression to new heights.
Arya River is a budding singer-songwriter from Ocala, Florida. She cites influences from R&B, Soul, and Pop idols like Snoh Aalegra, Alex Isley, and Olivia Dean. Her music offers a blend of warmth, simplicity, and poignant songwriting, addressing impactful topics. With a focus on connecting with young adults navigating the complexities of personal growth, she’s doing something familiar, but she’s doing it in a way that feels fresh. We recommend keeping an eye on her as she finds her footing.
Arya is working diligently on an upcoming EP which will feature ‘lost connection.’
