KJAZZ UK is pleased to welcome from Tampa Bay Florida Bickley Rivera. Innovative nu-jazz & chill artist Bickley Rivera has quickly captured global interest since the release of “Chillin’ After Five” which features sweet sounds of steel pan and vocals in trendy chillout style. 
Few steelpan artists have developed the Nujazz & Chillout genre with this instrumentation wrapping soothing velvet vocals in captivating style. Since her debut release, her music has been heard on national television on The USA’s Weather Channel’s forecast Bickley has reached listeners from all over the radio globe who have fallen in love with the smooth, relaxing vibes. “ I have a strong passion for this artists music,it so serene and touching,when feeling so low ”, “ Awesome sounding music that makes the man behind my eyes dance to the beat of the ear drums! ”, “ Reminds me of Andy Narell Music from Trinidad! ”, “ Great Samba Rhythm…makes me think I’m on holiday in the Caribbean ”, “ Great sound and vibe. Lets hear more of her! I like the jazzy Steel pan! ” “I was inspired to write these smooth jazz and chillout songs because I knew that the steel pan had more to say than just island and caribbean notes”, says Bickley. “I felt the instrument’s acceptance as a solo instrument had begun, but needed to be challenged and enhanced in other genres of music. More smooth jazz musicians, particularly female artists, have been moving up this trend and it’s really exciting times for us all. Music can truly be a universal language appreciated by the entire world now.” Bickley’s pre-release singles from the album, “Groovin’ In Rio”, was featured regularly on CBS’s WRCH 100.5FM radio in Southern New England during the summer of 2009 and her single “Chillin’ After Five” is part of their HD and Smooth Jazz programming.
