Bio:

Rianne Downey is a writer, guitarist, performer and golden-voiced singer whose passion for country, folk and more has instinctively propelled her – via accidentally astute use of social media and authentically viral acclaim – to the creation of The Consequence of Love, a storming and seductive debut album recorded with producer Ryan Hadlock (Zach Bryan, Brandi Carlisle) in Seattle’s Bear Creek Studio.

In 2023 after being approached by Paul Heaton, Rianne went from playing to 300 people in Glasgow’s King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut to headlining in front of 30,000 people at Warrington’s Neighbourhood festival. And the rest, as they say, is hysteria, with Downey continuing to perform with Heaton across 2023, into 2024 to his slot opening the main stage at last year’s Glastonbury and through 2025 including a landmark gig at Paul’s beloved Bramall Lane - the home of Sheffield United.

In the midst of all this… Last spring Rianne Downey spent a month in Seattle, recording The Consequence of Love. It’s an album in which she gloriously leans into her love of folk and country, notably Townes Van Zandt, her parallel passion for Scottish and Irish culture, and into her ability to craft an instantly hummable melody.
