Reevah

Constantly evolving from her singer-songwriter roots, Reevah has earned tastemaker acclaim, international airplay and streaming support in Ireland, the UK, the USA and beyond. But now Reevah steps into a new chapter and a fresh sound with upcoming new single 'Take What You Can', Reevah’s instantly magnetic vocal allure adds the midas touch to a sound that will appeal to fans of Kacey Musgraves, Maggie Rogers, Florence + the Machine and London Grammar.

Like those artists, Reevah writes songs which express the frailties, confusions and vulnerabilities that come with everyday experience. But ultimately she finds an empowerment that offers hope to listeners who are going through similar things.

“I don’t tend to write about soft subjects,” notes Reevah, real name Aoife Boyle. Fittingly, ‘Take What You Can’ possesses a dogged determination to refuse to adhere to social expectations.

That attitude simmers throughout the new music that Reevah is preparing to unleash. Some songs are direct, others are metaphorical but powerful emotions, self-determination and “the power of women” are recurring themes. For Reevah, a mother of two, it’s also about standing up and affirming that a mother can also prosper as an artist. “We’re still viable and able to do what we want to do, and we deserve to be accepted in terms of having a sustainable career.”

Reevah’s brighter, bolder new sound delivers those messages in a style that will take her to her broadest audience to date. While Aoife is the voice, the face and the leader of Reevah, it’s also a collaborative project with key input from her live drummer Brian Doherty and producer Matt Weir. As Reevah expands, “We’re on the same path sonically, so that’s really exciting too. We’re trying to pick it up and let people know what the potential of Reevah is, especially as a live act. We’ve had some great things happen at home” - an NI Music Prize nomination for Best Single, RTÉ Radio One airplay, shows with The Coronas, The Academic, Other Voices, Whelans Ones to Watch and SOAK - “but we’re definitely looking to expand that further.”

“I feel like this is just the beginning,” she concludes with the calm aura of someone knowing that she’s right on track. “It feels like a fresh start, this will be the first step, and it feels like a new chapter. We’re finding out what Reevah is about, and I know there’s plenty more to come.”
