Ria Timkin

Ria Timkin is a solo songwriter, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist who has developed a cinematic indie-pop sound grounded in strength, intelligence and multi-layered complexity. Her debut EP "Visitor" has been featured on various national radio stations including BBC Introducing and BBC Radio Bristol. Ria’s interactive live performance, with a witty application of the loop station and layered sounds of the guitar, keyboard, percussion, melodica, and vocal harmonies, has earned her spots at over 100 shows across the breadth of the UK, including such well-known festivals as Glastonbury, Shindig, Bristol Harbour Festival, and Redfest.

In 2021 Ria relocated to Belfast where she has been performing and making music. Ria hosts a monthly open mic in the city aimed at championing original music. She is now gearing up for the release of her well-anticipated new EP scheduled for late 2024.
