La Rissa
Featuring on BBC 6 Music, Huw Stephens' BBC Radio 1 show and BBC Introducing, La Rissa are a dark-wave duo making spooky synth pop in a dim little attic in Leeds.
La Rissa mix 80’s electronic analogue synth production and powerful socio-political vocals and big beats.
Starting off as a solo project the group evolved over time and have found their sound in their most recent releases.
Supported by the Music:Leeds Launchpad programme and championed by BBC Introducing La Rissa are ‘inspired by post-punk, and 80’s nostalgia which makes for a really unique, dark sound that I can’t get enough of.’ - Emily Pilbeam, BBC Introducing.
‘….and she was a bit of a revelation. Early days but big heavy beats and that beautiful soaring vocal left me wanting to find out more…’ - Tony Ereira, Come Play With Me, God is In the TV Zine.
