WORD ARTISTE - ALICE VEDRAL RIVERA
writer – poet – lyricist – spoken word
I am Czech-American, born in a refugee camp in Germany and immigrated to the US with my parents when I was about 20 months old. I read. I write. I started writing poems at the tender age of ten. Writing proved to be cathartic. I finally gathered enough courage to share with the world.
I record my poems/writings and post them on www.acidplanet.com under artist name AVR and under profiles AVR and Creative Partnerships (collaborations with the fine musicians on AP); genre – Spoken Word. Click to hear my poems as spoken word on www.acidplanet.com
In addition, some of my spoken word pieces with and without music are on www.garageband.com, artist AVR. I am currently collaborating with Chuck F. Berglund (who adds his awesome music and mixes to my vocals) and we will be coming out with a CD soon.
Dearest and Most Precious: A Love Journal is my first book. It is available from my publisher at www.authorhouse.com. The book is a ‘collage’ of journal entries and notes/poems to former lovers adjusted and arranged so as to seem to be for one person in the ‘present’. Titles marked with a heart are excerpts from my book.
My poems can be found on www.poemhunter.com, under poet name, Alice Vedral Rivera. I am presently working on putting together a book of poetry for publication in the near future. Click to read my poems on www.poemhunter.com
Ciba/Rhythm on 22nd, the band I write lyrics for as well as manage, is taking up most of my time these days. More information on the band’s first CD (released May 4, 2007) as well as history and gig information can be found on the official band website . Ciba/Rhythm on 22nd 1st CD available now.
I strive to be fully engaged in living life and loving passionately.
If my words resonate with something in others, if I touch others on any level – then I have achieved my goal.
Any collaborations uploaded are done so with the permission of whoever I have collaborated with. The copyright for collabs with Chuck Berglund is held by Alice Vedral Rivera, Chuck F. Berglund, Alci Moods Music ASCAP.
