The word is spreading like wild-fire about Tampa Bay's Bickley Rivera, the hot steelpan smooth jazz performer! With over 35 countries around the globe excited about her newest album, "Chillin' After Five" is getting alot of play on terrestrial, internet, international and local radios and you just might hear her speaking on the radio about her revolutionary music which spans the smooth jazz, nujazz, chill, ambient and downtempo markets. \n"...this new, attractive young artist shows us that she knows her way around not only the pans and keys but how to comfortably intermingle her style with the type of magnetic magic that has propelled other artists with a vision to produce a solo signature touch..." says The Smooth Jazz Ride's Ronald Jackson. \n"...what Bickley is doing is ground-breaking...her music is like the difference between wine and champagne!" says Lisa D. Smith, Publisher and Marketing Director for Big Blend Radio. \nBICKLEY's Chillin' After Five album, features the sweet sounds of steel pan and velvet vocals into a sultry chillout style and a new trend in music.

The album was produced by Miami's Greg Minnick and mastered by world-renowed engineer Bob Katz. \nMs. Rivera began her recording career in 1985 and branched into the Latin and Caribbean genre when she and her husband, Nelson, formed the group "Cuba Libre" in 1992, where she was keyboardist and lead singer.
