FINFOLK SERIES AT MYSTIC AQUARIUM FEATURING RILEY COTTON
Wednesday, July 31, 2024 (11:00 AM - 3:00 PM) (EDT)
Description
Join us for FinFolk Series at Mystic Aquarium showcasing folk music acts in our Courtyard! This week, we will be joined by Riley Cotton! About Riley Cotton Riley Cotton is a New England Music Award nominated folk singer/songwriter based in Hartford, CT. Cotton has been described as “…an old-school type of songwriter whose songs and performance are able to cross space and time to touch that part of your brain where love, loss, happiness, and longing all co-exist” (Chip McCabe, The Dad Metal Blog). While growing up in Texas, much of her musical taste was shaped by the voices of the women of country music who so boldly embraced the power of their belt and divine femininity in the face of an industry that did not embrace them. When writing her own music, Riley aspires to share her lived experiences, take a stance on the issues that compel her, and utilize the masterful story telling mechanisms so prevalent in the music she grew up on.
