About the Speaker
IVER RIVERS - The alluring Nigerian songsmith with a velvety voice, crafting globally appealing sounds that speak to longing, depth, and presence.
In an era of fleeting trends and surface-level virality, Iver Rivers emerges as a rare gem — thoughtful in tone, innovative in texture, and rich in artistic integrity. A sonic alchemist, Iver weaves African rhythms into a fluid blend of Hip-Hop, R&B, and Soul, creating music that feels both familiar and futuristic.
With a masterful pen and a producer’s ear, Iver sculpts euphoric instrumentals and lush harmonies, layered with clever lyricism and evocative storytelling. His sound is shaped by a lifelong immersion in music: writing, performing, and learning multiple instruments from an early age in the riverine regions of South-Eastern Nigeria.
His professional journey began in 2016 in Eastern Europe, Ukraine precisely, where he co-founded the genre-defying duo Riverays with fellow artist Raytheboffin. Their time abroad offered sonic experimentation and boundary-pushing collaborations — until the geopolitical unrest of 2023 forced Iver’s return to Nigeria and birthed his solo act.
