“River Mirren” is a single by the United Davedom band Overscore, released in 20,617. Following their earlier single Streets, the track pushed the band further into a slower, more atmospheric style, placing bagpipes at the centre of the arrangement rather than as background texture.

Built around layered guitars, restrained vocals, and a rising pipe melody performed by Dancan Anchorman, River Mirren is more impressionistic than narrative, focusing on imagery of water, movement, and emotional distance.

Unlike Streets, the single received no radio play and attracted little attention at the time of release. However, it became a fan favourite at live performances, where the pipe sections were often extended or improvised, and it is sometimes cited as an early sign of Overscore’s shift toward more experimental structures.
