This weeks evening program is a collaboration with Philip Powel, director of JOHN106. JOHN106 provides a platform for emerging artists who push limits, cross borders and break down barriers.
Live: Rive
Rive is the Dutch soul/rock/funk formation around Rivelino ‘Blackrockstar’ Rigters, the tall singer-guitarist with a firm and at the same time heavenly voice. The band RIVE stands for several cultures mixed together in one melting pot. From Indonesia to Suriname and from Holland to Aruba, they got it all in there and it’s just the same with their style. They were brought up with the old r&b/soul collection from their parents, but they also got the traditional Moluccan flows in them. Combined with the Afro-Caribbean rhythm ingrained by nature as they were raised with an island attitude, you can imagine it’s an interesting clash of styles. If you mash that all up with heavy alternative rock, behold: Afro Punk aka Urban Rock is born. Next to Rive, Rivelino is also active as a social entrepreneur.
