Today, Ria Mae announced the release of her highly anticipated EP, Stars,
out March 8. On Friday, Ria also surprised fans with the release of the
R&B infused “Trixi.” The provocative new track about desire and
obsession is available to stream and download now.
“Trixi” is the fourth song off Stars released to date. It follows, "It's You" (Acoustic)," "Not At Peace" and the EP’s first single, "Hold Me." It was produced and mixed by Kris Eriksson (The Chainsmokers, Afro Jack, Tori Kelly).
Stars takes its name from the title track off the album written by Ria Mae, Erik Alcock (P!nk, Eminem) and Calum Brockie.
“For me, it’s a song about a tough journey, but never giving up or
losing faith,” says Ria. That mindset inspired the writing of the EP and
the title of Ria’s headlining Canadian tour. The “Never Coming Down”
cross-Canada tour kicked off in the fall of 2018 and will conclude with
two sold out shows in Ria’s hometown of Halifax, Nova Scotia on March 8
and 9.
Ria’s new EP is a follow up to the JUNO Award nominated, My Love. The first single “Bend”
became an instant hit, skyrocketing to Top 5 at Hot AC, Top 15 at AC,
and Top 15 at CHR radio, reaching platinum certification status. Last
year, Ria was nominated for “Album of the Year” at the 2018 JUNO Awards.
Two years earlier, Ria also earned a JUNO nomination for “Single of the
Year” for her platinum-selling hit “Clothes Off."
