The Riven

The Riven is a Stockholm-based rock band that brings a fresh yet retro-inspired energy to the modern rock scene. Formed in 2016, the band blends bluesy riffs, psychedelic grooves, and powerhouse vocals, drawing comparisons to classic acts like Deep Purple and Fleetwood Mac while carving out their own gritty, soulful sound. Their lineup includes Charlotte Andersson (vocals), Arnau Diaz (guitar), Max Ternebring (bass), and Olof Axegärd (drums), who together create a dynamic mix of heavy rock and vintage vibes.

Since their debut EP *Blackbird* (2017) and full-length album *The Blackened Blues* (2019), The Riven has kept fans hooked with electrifying tracks like *Fly Free*, *On Top of Evil*, and their 2022 album *Visions of Tomorrow*, which features standout singles *Set My Heart On Fire* and *Peace and Conflict*. Known for their high-octane live shows and throwback aesthetic, they’ve toured across Europe, winning over crowds with their raw, unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll spirit. Whether you’re into bluesy licks or anthemic choruses, The Riven delivers a riff-packed time machine to rock’s golden era.
