The Rions
Band Sydney Formed 2016
The Rions formed in 2016 in Sydney. The Rions has 9 chart appearances on 5 radio countdowns from 1 station on RockLists, spanning 2021–2025. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Minivan”, which appears on 1 list with a best position of #38. The station that charted The Rions most often is Triple J (Australia (national)), with 9 appearances. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2023.
The Rions came up out of Sydney's Northern Beaches in 2016, four mates with guitars and a taste for the sun-bleached indie rock of their neighbors: they name Lime Cordiale and Ocean Alley, both from the same stretch of coast, as influences. Noah Blockley sings and plays bass, Harley Wilson and Asher McLean handle the guitars, and Tom Partington drums.
Their break came in 2021, when "Night Light" won Triple J's Unearthed High competition. The songs since then have kept the same mix of jangle and wiry nervous energy, poppy enough to hum and scrappy enough to feel real. "Anakin" came in 2022, then the Minivan EP in 2023, with "Scary Movies" and "Take What You Want", and Happiness In A Place It Shouldn't Be in 2024, carrying "Physical Medicine" and "Passionfruit".
In 2025 they finally stretched out to a full album, Everything Every Single Day, with "Shut You Out" and "Tonight's Entertainment" leading the charge.
