Rhye

Michael Milosh, known professionally as Milosh, was born in 1976 in Toronto, Canada. He began his musical journey at age three, learning classical cello, and later expanded his skills by studying drumming, jazz, and vocals at university. His early solo career saw the release of several electronic albums, including “You Make Me Feel” in 2004 and “iii” in 2008, under labels such as Plug Research and Studio !K7. These early works laid the foundation for his atmospheric sound, characterized by subtle electronic textures and delicate melodies.

In 2010, Milosh formed the band Rhye, initially with Robin Hannibal. The duo released their debut album, “Woman,” in March 2013. This album garnered significant attention for its blend of R&B, electronic, and soul elements, highlighted by Milosh’s distinctive, often androgynous vocal delivery. Following the success of “Woman,” Milosh continued to release solo work, including “Jetlag” in November 2013, and toured extensively as Rhye, performing over 476 live shows. He also contributed the track “Then It Happened” to the Ghostly International/Williams Street album “Ghostly Swim” in 2008.

Milosh continued to develop the Rhye project, releasing “Blood” in February 2018, which further explored his signature sound while incorporating new influences. This was followed by “Spirit” in 2019 and “Home” in 2021. Throughout his career, Milosh has focused on creating introspective and emotionally resonant music, maintaining a consistent artistic vision across his solo and band projects. His work has been recognized by various music outlets, including NPR, for its unique blend of genres and evocative atmosphere.
