Coffee Date — Evelyn Rivera

Coffee Date

Melodic instrumental lofi covers of game music

Coffee Date is the project of Puerto Rican-American composer Evelyn Rivera. Using organic beats, live instrumentation, and heaps of nostalgia, Coffee Date takes a heartfelt and human approach to the lofi hip-hop genre.

A self-taught multi-instrumentalist since an early age, Evelyn plays keyboard, orchestral strings, ukulele, and guitar. She launched the Coffee Date project with GameChops in 2019, debuting with the instant hit Dearly Beloved, and has since released upwards of ten albums and over a hundred songs — along with vinyl pressings for Stardew & Chill and Stardew & Chill 2.
