Forming as a band after winning their high-school talent show, The Rions – composed of Noah Blockley, Harley Wilson, Asher McLean and Tom Partington - could never have imagined what they have now achieved. Amassing 72 million global streams across their catalogue, a #1 debut record, touring the world and selling out venues across the globe - it’s safe to say they’re one of Australia’s greatest musical treasures. Their debut record was followed with three iconic tours; beginning by playing in some of Australia’s biggest theatres, followed by a return to the UK and EU where they sold out venues in Bristol, London, Manchester, and Leeds. Finally, they wrapped up the year with shows at beloved festival Spilt Milk, playing on stages alongside some of the world’s biggest artists. Now, with new songs in rotation and new cities to visit, they prepare for the Everywhere Every Single Day Tour. After a momentous 2025, you better get in quick to catch The Rions live in a city near you in 2026. Presented by Select Music and UNIFIED Artist Management.
