Acclaimed singer-songwriter RHODES releases beautiful new single ‘Sunlight’. The piano-led song shows RHODES trying to see and process the effect that his state of mind and outlook on life has on those around him.
Speaking about ‘Sunlight’, RHODES says: “’Sunlight’ gave me a way of expressing my own fears to my partner and at the same time showing my admiration and profound gratitude to the way they’ve been there for me and helped me grow.”
Last month, the London-based artist released ‘Happy’, a personal and introspective track that addresses the idea of finding happiness within your life, despite it being not easy to reach (listen here). The release of ‘Happy’, written during a period of self-reflection, saw RHODES mark the start of a new era in his creative outlet.
RHODES released his sophomore album, Friends Like These, in January via Nettwerk. Recorded during lockdown alongside producers Rich Cooper and Ash Workman (Christine and the Queens, Metronomy) Friends Like These is a stunning collection of personal tracks, sharing tales of love, loss, friendship, and hope, harnessed by RHODES’ charming vocals. In April, he released EP The Pool Sessions, a special selection of tracks from Friends Like These performed live at The Pool Studios in London (listen here).
Friends Like These marked RHODES’ first album release since his 2015 acclaimed debut Wishes (via Sony Music). The album included hit single ‘Let It All Go’, a duet with Birdy which has amassed over 216 million Spotify streams.
RHODES has charmed audiences on a number of headline shows and tours, and opened for the likes of Sam Smith, London Grammar, and Hozier. In February, the songwriter captivated crowds across the UK and Europe while on his highly anticipated headline tour, which concluded with an intimate show at EartH in Hackney, London.
