London's sophisticated electro-pop duo RIVRS features Charlotte Mallory and Finn Munro. The pair began making music in 2013, taking inspiration from Depeche Mode, Purity Ring, and the xx. RIVRS first attracted attention with their cover of En Vogue's "Don't Let Go" and "Close to You," a collaboration with Lobo that arrived at the end of 2014. Their official debut single, "Last Love," was released by Kitsune and appeared on the label's New Faces, Vol. 2 collection. The duo worked on its debut album with Years & Years' Mark Ralph and issued the single "Friend Lover" on Vroom Vroom Records (Charli XCX's imprint) in early 2016. ~ Heather Phares
