Rhye
Band Toronto United States Formed 2010
Rhye formed in 2010 in Toronto, United States. Rhye has 4 chart appearances on 3 radio countdowns from 3 stations on RockLists, spanning 2013. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Open”, which appears on 3 lists with a best position of #36. The station that charted Rhye most often is WFUV (New York, NY), with 2 appearances. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2013.
Rhye started out as a mystery. Canadian singer Mike Milosh and Danish instrumentalist Robin Hannibal put the singles "Open" and "The Fall" online with barely a word about who was behind them, and the guessing game only made the music more alluring. Their debut album, Woman, followed on March 4, 2013, and it's the sound of R&B at a whisper: Milosh's soft, androgynous voice floating over slow-burning grooves and sophisti-pop polish, as intimate as a late-night phone call.
Woman made the longlist for the 2013 Polaris Music Prize. By 2017 Hannibal was out, and Rhye had become a collective led by Milosh and built around its live band. The second album, Blood, arrived on February 2, 2018, written, produced and played mostly by Milosh himself, and he took it on an international tour that same year.
