Broken Hearted Dreams
Released: April 2nd, 2003

Recorded in the winter of 2003, Broken Hearted Dreams makes up in layers and creative engineering what it lacks in Josh B. Some have said:

"Riviera's Broken Hearted Dreams (EP) is a hideaway of bungalow anthems and bedroom door confessionals inspired by the wisdom of a hollowed-out Bible. Over six songs, the Chicago quintet maps the routes between American Music Club, The Rolling Stones, and the more intellectual wing of insurgent country's brokedown palace." - All Music Guide

"Riviera's variance is the strength that many of their folk peers lack. They keep modest progressions, alternately mellow and distorted instuments, and unpretentious lyrics ... The title track, a standout, plays out as a gourgeous symphony of layered instruments and atmospheric effects." - Stacey K. Anderson, Glorious Noise
