Ria Thielsch is known by Luv's fans as the one who replaced Patty Brard in the summer of 1980. She reached fame with the release of the single "My Number One" and the album "Forever Yours". Six months after her recruitment, Luv' disbanded (see Chapter V of the trio's biography). Then she continued her career in the fashion industry.

Now Ria can be proud of her niece, Maxime Barlag who is the female singer of the pop-folk band "Mister and Mississippi". In addition to Maxime, the group is composed of three other members: Samgar Lemuël Jacobs (vocals/percussion), Tom Broshuis (guitar/keyboard) and Danny van Tiggele (guitar and vocals). The quartet was formed at the "Herman Brood Academy" last year.

Northern Sky
In September 2012, they signed a record deal with V2 Records Benelux. In early December, their first single "Northern Sky" came out and rapidly got radio airplay. On January 28th 2013, the eponymous debut album "Mister and Mississippi" was released. It received widespread acclaim from music critics and it was even named "album of the week" by the influential 3FM radio station. On February 2nd it entered the Dutch Single Top 100 at #6 and the Alternative Top 30 at #1. Five weeks later, this opus is still on the charts (#61 on the Top 100 and #15 on the Alternative Top 30).
