Anticipation builds as 21-year-old Australian singer-songwriter Holly Riva drops her latest single, “Devil On My Shoulder.” Following the major success of her previous single, “Labyrinth (Mask of Me),” this new release continues Riva’s signature ‘dark pop’ sound, promising a unique experience.“Devil On My Shoulder” is a dynamic and haunting single filled with Riva’s addictive lyrics, exploring the inner conflicts we grapple with.
The song serves as a fierce reminder of the devilish whispers that lurk within, urging us to embrace our hidden desires and confront our deepest fears. Written by Holly Riva and Jennifer Ann, the track smoulders with its infectious beats and mesmerizing melodies. Riva, known for her silky smooth vocals, is often compared to Dove Cameron and Billie Eilish.
Riva comments:
“It’s so empowering to compose with a female producer/songwriter Jennifer Ann (Astraea). Don’t get me wrong, I love my male producers but super rare to find women in production”
Mixed by industry heavyweight Will Reeves, known for his work with Stormzy, Khalid, and Joy Crookes, the track has a polished sound that captivates from start to finish. Mastered at the legendary Abbey Road Studios by Christian Wright, whose credits include Ed Sheeran and Coldplay, “Devil On My Shoulder,” delivers flawless quality. Bringing the song to life, award-winning Director Antonio Ruffino of Hug Media filmed an artistic and edgy music video in Sydney, Australia.
Set in a spooky house, the video is filled with dark shadows, intrigue and slight paranormal activity as a figure follows in Holly’s footsteps. As the momentum gathers, Holly Riva is gearing up to unleash “Devil On My Shoulder” at her headline show on the main stage at Freight Island, Manchester, UK, on May 24th. Launching her UK tour in May 2024, Riva kicks off her shows in Manchester, Brighton, London, and Wolverhampton before heading to India and Australia later in the year.
