Syren Rivers is a musical force of nature who has been pushing boundaries since his early days in London. Starting as a young singer, producer and performer, he quickly ascended to sharing stages with legends like Busta Rhymes, Jodeci, Redman, Ike Turner, and James Brown. His triumph at Amateur Night at Harlem’s Apollo Theater marked just the beginning of an extraordinary journey that would see him perform at prestigious venues worldwide, from Glastonbury and Womad festivals to the Barbican, Blue Note Tokyo, Coachella, Jazz Cafe, and Ronnie Scott’s.
Early collaborations with Da Lata and KV5 (Smoke City) led to UK chart success, followed by his own No.1 Funky House iTunes hits “Signed & Sealed” and “So Dangerous”. As a versatile recording artist and prolific songwriter, Syren established himself through both major label collaborations and underground success in the UK’s Funky House and RnB scene.
His kaleidoscopic talents span drum and bass, amapiano, house, jazz, hip hop, acoustic folk, and afro soul, creating a unique sonic tapestry that defies categorization. Known for his soulful vocals and innovative production, Syren has made waves with his critically acclaimed debut DnB album “Liquid Soul” on Fokuz Recordings and continues to break new ground with each release.

“From the day of our birth till the day of our death, we are born to be special, we are born truly blessed… we should know our true value, not fear the unknown, draw strength from within us till that last breath is gone…
It’s a sin to not use the gifts we have been given, to not utilize the power we posses, to not channel the light of our souls to attain our goals …We are what we perceive ourselves to be …take our crowns, look towards the heavens spread our wings and fly” ~ Syren Rivers
