Artistic Journey

Riley Mullany is a Chicago-based indie pop / folk-pop singer-songwriter crafting soft, introspective songs that read like letters and sound like late-night confessions. Blending gentle guitar arrangements, shimmering melodies, and her signature pastel-glitter aesthetic, Riley’s music explores vulnerability with warmth.

 

Each era she creates becomes its own story — shaped by growth, reflection, and the desire to turn everyday moments into something cinematic. What began as writing lyrics in notebooks gradually transformed into a lifelong artistic path, built on honesty, imagination, and the kind of emotion that stays with you long after the last note fades.

 

Now preparing for her move to Nashville, Riley is continuing to refine her sound and build a community drawn to her storytelling. With new music on the horizon — including the Mirrorlight Chapter — she’s stepping fully into the next era of her artistry, guided by hope, resilience, and a dream she’s ready to chase.
