Knickerbocker: Riley Cotton

Riley Cotton is an old-school songwriter based in Hartford, CT: Armed with an acoustic guitar, she writes songs that paint the emotional context in which we make life’s most consequential decisions. Riley has been nominated for a New England Music Award, was written up in CT Magazine, and in 2024, appeared in “Divine Renovation,” an Amazon Prime series starring Erik Estrada.

“ songs and performance are able to cross space and time to touch that part of your brain where love, loss, happiness, and longing all co-exist.” – Chip McCabe, Hartford Courant
