RHYE first surfaced setting the Internet abuzz with ambiguous imagery, sophisticatedly sensual music videos, and the distinctive voice of Michael Milosh. The critically acclaimed debut album Woman was released in 2013 and lauded by critics from Pitchfork to The Guardian to New York Times. Gifted songwriting, breathtaking vocals and deft instrumental arrangements combine to create an intoxicating blend of R&B influenced, deeply emotive music making the album a staple for provoking intimate moments. Since the release of Woman, RHYE has relentlessly toured to establish a devoted global fanbase. Transforming what was once a studio project, the music has been elevated by a cast of accomplished multi-instrumentalists enrapturing crowds worldwide.

RHYE’s second album Blood was released in February 2018 and was hailed as “reserved, understated, and brilliant” by NPR Music, “soul pop that hits all the high notes” by Wall Street Journal, and “a triumph” by NME.   A new piano focused project titled Spirit arrived in May 2019 celebrating the subtle magic of gentle moments and featuring collaborations with Ólafur Arnalds, and Dan Wilson.

In 2021 RHYE has entered a new era with the release of Home. The record, focused on the idea of home as the nexus for creativity and buoyed by stand out tracks “Black Rain,” “Come in Closer,” and “Beautiful,” received wide critical acclaim from The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Billboard, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, GQ, among others.

2023 found RHYE releasing the most personal music of his career.  Passing is an achingly beautiful meditation on loss and the power of music as a coping mechanism.  Intimate, still, and heart-breakingly direct, it addresses head on the experience of losing a parent over the course of four haunting songs.

As of June 2026, RHYE returns from a brief musical hiatus with Joy. An emotionally driven collection focused on unification amid hardship through the foundation of love and compassion. The tight-knit project offers a direct collection of songs for listeners to connect with on a personal level.  Of the release Milosh says,

Right now, Joy is what I’m searching for. Joy in the room while recording, Joy on stage when performing, and Joy in the process of freeing the emotions I’m working through in these songs, getting them out of the body and into the world.

Following the Joy’s release, RHYE will be touring across North America, Latin America, and Europe.
