ArtHop After-Party
featuring live music by Rich Driver

Singer-songwriter Rich Driver takes the music he loves, alt-country, pop, and rock, and blends them into style he likes to call California roots pop. His songwriting influences range from the eclectic Harry Nilsson and Scott Walker to the modern craftsmen of Ryan Adams, Jeff Tweedy and Britt Daniel. Known for his catchy hooks, you will find yourself singing his songs in the least likely of places.

Raised on the beaches of Orange County and San Diego, Rich migrated to Northern California in the mid-1990s. There he co-founded the Tahoe-based blues-pop trio Blue House Burning and the Sacramento Music Award winning acid-jazz ensemble West Coast Rhythm Section. The bands played with established acts such as Charlie Hunter, Ozomatli, B-Side Players, Duke Robillard, Norton Buffalo, and Koko Taylor. After a brief hiatus to complete a masters program, he re-emerged in 2008 with his first self-titled solo release. His forthcoming EP, “Inside A Valley,” marks a new chapter in a dynamic career and is expected to be released in June of 2011.
