Music Bio

Rijah shapes layers of luminous harmony, uplifting vulnerability through her candid lyrics. She fuses the soul of her hometown, Jersey City, with the jazz of Manhattan, sculpting a vivid self portrait that reflects themes of perseverance, growth, and human nature. In September 2024, Rijah made her festival debut, sharing the same stage with Norah Jones and Noah Kahan at the 2024 Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She also played at the 2025 NAMM Convention in Anaheim, California in January. In both 2023 and 2024, Rijah was featured in NPR Tiny Desk Top Shelf episodes with her songs “Up” and “House In Tattoos”. Through the exploration of herself and the world around her, Rijah’s latest project, “Motion Pictures,” emerged, reflecting the bridge between youth and adulthood. Released in 2022, “the only one i know EP,” is an encapsulation of the first chapter. Since then, she has experimented with blending the intricacies of jazz with the lyrical and melodic sensibilities of her musical inspirations, weaving a tapestry that tells her story. Her sophomore EP, “Motion Pictures,” is now available for streaming.
