MEET RILEY
Highly aspirational and hopelessly relatable, Riley Roth sings what she writes and writes what she knows, wearing imperfections on her sleeve. Garnering over 27M streams and amassing a fanbase of over 400K on tiktok alone, Roth is a vulnerable and unapologetic storyteller, penning songs she wishes she could have listened to when she was going through the situations that inspired her lyrics.
Originally from Pennsylvania, Roth began writing songs at the age of 10. By age 16, she began making monthly trips to Nashville and made the permanent move shortly after, graduating high school early. Catching the attention of hit songwriter and producer, busbee, Roth signed her first publishing and production deal just months into living in Music City. She went on to become the first signing to busbee’s new label, Altadena, working closely with Daniel Lee, President.
Roth says of her music, "When people listen to my songs, I hope my conversational, honest lyrics make them feel understood - as though they're hearing the words straight from a friend." Roth is excited to release new music in the coming months.
“Riley represents every positive trait you hope to find in a young artist and none of the negatives that can so often make those situations challenging. She holds her own in every setting: in a writing room, on stage, and interacting with industry professionals at every level.”
– Daniel Lee, GM and VP of Creative for Altadena
“Riley has that rare ability to communicate directly to listeners at every level, and to her peers in particular. It’s a product of her heart, her dedication, her skill, and her work ethic, and when an artist can marry those traits with the right songs and records, anything is possible.”
– busbee, Founder/CEO for Altadena
