R.I.O.

R.I.O. is a German dance music band founded in 2007, known for a consistent output of chart-topping singles across Europe. After their debut release, the track ‘R.I.O.’ (a cover of ‘Samba de Janeiro Bellini’), garnered significant club play and charted within the top 10 in Spain in 2007, the German dance music band R.I.O. rapidly solidified their global presence.

Their first studio album, ‘Shine On (The Album),’ was released in 2010. A year later, 2011 saw the release of their second studio album, ‘Sunshine,’ which featured hit singles including ‘Like I Love You’ and ‘Miss Sunshine,’ the latter charting notably in German-speaking countries. A major career milestone occurred with the release of ‘Turn This Club Around,’ a high-profile collaboration with American singer U-Jean. This track topped the iTunes charts for three consecutive weeks, reached number one in Switzerland, and also charted in the UK and Canada, earning R.I.O.

This was closely followed by another notable collaboration, ‘The Sign,’ featuring the iconic group Vengaboys, further expanding their reach and demonstrating their continued relevance within the global dance music scene. With a consistent track record of chart-topping singles and gold-certified releases across multiple European markets, R.I.O. maintains its status as a highly influential and marketable force in electronic music, continuing to captivate audiences worldwide with their energetic productions.
