Creative lockdown: Riff Raff
Riff Raff are part of the ongoing Bristol24/7 Creative Lockdown series, showcasing how people in Bristol have been getting arty under lockdown.
Bristol choir Riff Raff have still been singing, despite the pandemic.
The choir, which has groups in Clifton, Redland, Bishopton, Southville and Fishponds, has recently released a video of members singing a mashup up of Livin’ On A Prayer and You Give Love A Bad Name by Bon Jovi, while isolated at home.
Riff Raff, which was founded in 2010, has been adapting to the Government’s lockdown rules, and has moved rehearsals online, starting a new, online term on Monday, April 27.
The rendition of Livin’ On A Prayer/You Give Love A Bad Name features lots of the choirs members singing in their houses, and the video and sound was then edited together by Samantha Neville.
