Hailing from Perth, Australia, the musical maestro Rhyan Lyndon-James is better known by the moniker RHY. This producer and songwriter, under the veil of the first three letters of his name, offers an intimate glimpse into his world via a delightful pop-focused indie rock sound.
His musical repertoire draws on his knack for crafting honest lyrics that dive into thoughts that traverse the spectrum of happiness, introspection and sheer whimsy. RHY made his entrance into the music scene in 2021, releasing his debut single “Full Grown.”
Subsequently, he unveiled three more singles, setting the stage for his debut EP, DUMB FUNK, which dropped in July last year. A musical exploration of themes like over and under thinking, and leaning into too much, or too little commitment, the EP showcased RHY’s refreshing fusion of colourful synth arrangements, funky guitars and buoyant rhythms.
Building on the momentum of his previous single, “About You,” featuring the talented Melbourne artist Jewel Owusu, RHY continues his sonic adventure with the release of his latest single titled “Thai Milk Tea.” This sweet indie pop outing marks the second release from a highly anticipated EP set to drop next year.
With “Thai Milk Team,” RHY serves up an upbeat and instantly catchy sound. Opened by the rhythmic chords of lightly crunchy guitar tones over a laid back beat, grooving bass lines pulse before RHY’s elegant vocals enter. Fluttering sweetly above the funky energy of the arrangement, RHY spins infectious melodies and heartfelt lyricism, where RHY draws parallels between the sweetness of the classic Thai beverage and the endearing qualities of his now-wife.
With delicate rhythmic punch from the instrumentation and the ever-present patter of percussion, RHY sets up an energising indie experience. Once again showcasing his slick songwriting talent and charming performance panache, with “Thai Milk Tea” RHY further builds the excitement for his upcoming EP.
