New Orleans-based singer, songwriter, and guitarist Sean Riley makes record-worthy music anywhere he goes; in the clubs, in the studio, on the streets, and even in his living room. His music is deep delta blues rock in equal parts, conjuring the delta blues spirit of Bukka White, Muddy Waters, and New Orleans blues greats Snooks Eaglin and Slim Harpo. Riley’s songs speaks to love, loss, and missteps. Riley has toured internationally and plays weekly in New Orleans. He attributes his love for the Crescent City for providing him with the motivation to create new music as well as honor the rich culture of the city. “The musicians and people of New Orleans are a major inspiration for me every day,” says Riley. Sean Riley plays solo and with his backing band The Water, aptly named for the fluidity of different musicians joining him on stage.Riley’s newest release “Stone Cold Hands” has been well received by blues and roots audiences and aficionados. The album is in heavy rotation on radio worldwide and recently reached no. 7 on the Billboard Blues charts.
