Rio Romeo

Rio Romeo is a butch lesbian musician based in Pomona, CA. They create cabaret punk & alternative indie pop on their acoustic piano. Their goal with sharing their music is to help others feel a little less alone in what they might be going through. Rio writes music from the heart and from experience - most of the songs are completely based on true events. Storytelling and theatricality runs deep in Rio's background, as they grew up in theatre and were performing since a very young age. Rio started playing around on the piano when they were 17, and eventually got their first acoustic piano in the summer of 2020, which led Rio to start creating content online, sharing their music on TikTok and empowering fans to share their own stories. Growing their TikTok to over 500k followers, fans fell in love with their day to day story as a non-binary butch in America.
