Bridging The Gap 'This is a great 7-track CD, independently released by Perth singer/songwriter Ronni Rae Rivers. 'Bridging The Gap' not only highlights Ronnie Rae's vocal ability it also show's her talents on fiddle, guitar and piano.All 7 tracks here are top quality and have the potential to be chart toppers. Mark Donohoe, from the very successful band Magnificent Seven, co-wrote this one with Ronni Rae. Stand out's here are track (1) 'Haven't Things Changed', track (2) the beautiful ballad 'Happy New-Year', track (3) the up tempo toe tapping 'Kickin This Heart Around', and track (6) 'You Win You Loose'. Well produced, mixed and presented with Great Vocals.

RONNI - RIDING RIVER OF DREAMS...
Western Australian based artist Ronni Rae Rivers is on her way to Tamworth, after being announced as a Top 20 Finalist for the prestigious 2004 Toyota Star Maker Quest.
The Mandurah local was selected from more than 100 hopefuls from all over Australia.
Ronni is no stranger to the stage, starting her singing career at a young age. With an Australian mum and Texan dad, her formative years were spent between Australia and the USA. After completing schooling in Perth, she travelled to New Orleans, Louisiana to study music and drama at University.
She has worked with greats such as Aaron Neville and the Neville Brothers,
And just to prove she's an emerging talent, she has also been invited to participate in the 2004 CMAA College of Country Music, for two weeks leading up to the Tamworth Country Music Festival in January.
"It's an honour to be selected from such an amazing pool of talent," Ronni said.
Her first single You Win...You Lose taken from her EP Bridging The Gap, has received a lot of support from radio and media.
To coincide with the upcoming release of her second single Happy New Year, Ronni has begun filming her first video clip, just in time for the New Year celebrations.
