Raw storytelling has long been a focal point of country music, and Ry Rivers is keeping that alive with his country debut, “Kiss a Cowboy.”

Written solely by Rivers, “Kiss a Cowboy” defined his new country sound and is catching the attention of many new listeners. Beginning his musical career with many pop releases, Ry Rivers has now returned to his cowboy roots and entered the country music space. It comes as no shock that his authentic country sound comes from his upbringing on his dad’s farm in Okeechobee, FL. Blending Florida beach nights and country grit, Rivers has quickly established a unique image that is turning heads.

“With country music exploding onto the world’s stage, I think a lot of new fans are finding themselves drawn to the genre’s stories, romance, and everything that comes with the cowboy lifestyle”, states Rivers. He aims to connect with a broad audience of country fans and non-country fans alike with his genuineness.

Ry has cultivated a one-of-a-kind sound he has labelled ‘blue-eyed country-soul’ and has a captivating presence both on stage and social media. From his truthful lyricism to the way he holds himself while
performing, it’s clear that authenticity is truly his superpower. Known for creating culturally relevant country music that honours the roots of the genre, Ry Rivers is one to watch. “Kiss a Cowboy” holds the classic
country sound we all know and love while also entering into a newer space for country music by discussing his fantasies of being with another man. Ry has notably been interviewed by Gayety, where he told them, “If I can make one person feel understood and like they aren’t alone, then I’ve done my job.” “Kiss a Cowboy” is doing just that as it connects with Ry’s audience of both new fans and longtime followers.

Alongside his debut country original release, Ry has just dropped a “Riverized” cover of the Brooks and Dunn classic, “Neon Moon.” Featuring his rich, soulful vocal and a beautiful slide guitar, this track continues to establish Rivers’ new country sound. Fans are excited to hear more from Rivers, whether it’s covers or originals. You can follow along with Ry as he continues to grow his online community on Instagram and TikTok.
