Arthur Rivers Biography
“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.”
― Alexander Pope
OR
I always feel happy. You know why? Because I don’t expect anything from anyone.
Expectations always hurt.
- William Shakespeare
Arthur is an accomplished Musician and soulful Singer/Songwriter based in
Switzerland, Germany. A talented creative, he is also a Cinematographer and Video
Artist, respected within the industry for his originality and versatility.
His dual ability to
dabble in both acoustic and electronic soundscapes sets him apart. On a mission to
make his audiences smile and enjoy life as much as he does, Arthur’s music charms,
enlightens and delights a varied audience the world over.
Hailing from Kazakhstan, and raised in Germany as the son of a music Professor, it
was only natural that music would become Arthur’s lifelong ‘partner in crime’.
With
his ukulele in hand, Arthur has traversed a dynamic career path, spanning several
countries over almost [a decade/two decades]. He has been a Chemist and an Audi
Test Driver in Germany, a Waiter in Japan, a Construction worker in Ukraine, a
Bartender in Australia, Tree Planter in Canada, and a Cinematographer in
Switzerland.
Over the years, Arthur’s music-making has harmonised with his diverse
life experiences, making his beats real, raw and relatable.
Arthur’s graceful groove is indie/folk/blues-infused, making his work timeless treats
for his audience. Uniquely, he also enjoys creating electronic indie/alternative music
that often conflicts with his easy-listening line-up but complements a deeper side of
his soul.
Known for his positive vibes both on and off the stage, his carefree attitude is
emulated in his tunes that transcend themes of love, hope, journey, struggle,
relationships and self-reflection. Sometimes, described as blissful bonfire music,
Arthur’s music is a raw reflection of a life well-lived. Arthur attributes his inspiration
to traveling for over four years to almost every continent of the world and thriving on
the meeting of minds in different places.
Drawing inspiration from his own life
experiences as well as influences such as Jack Johnson, and Jason Mraz, he hopes
that his music helps others to break free from their own barriers and be who they
want to be.
“If my music puts a smile on your face and makes you feel good, then I’ve done my
part to make the world a better place.”
