Exciting news for indie rock fans! Eora/Sydney’s beloved band The Rions is set to release their highly anticipated new single, “Shut You Out,” a day earlier than originally scheduled. The track will be available tomorrow, March 20, and we cannot wait for you to hear it.
Following a remarkable year in 2024, where they secured a spot in triple j’s Hottest 100 for the fourth consecutive time and debuted their second EP, which hit #4 on the ARIA Top Australian Albums Chart, The Rions are not slowing down. Their journey included a co-headline tour in the UK and Europe alongside Pacific Avenue, followed by an intense 21-date tour across Australia that capped off an incredible year for the band.
Production for “Shut You Out” comes from their frequent collaborator Chris Collins, who has worked with notable artists such as Matt Corby, Skegss, and Middle Kids. The track promises to be an anthem of empowerment, encouraging listeners to discard the burdens holding them back. Think of inspirations that include Sam Fender and Fontaines DC—all contributing to the unmistakable sound of The Rions.
This single marks the beginning of a fresh chapter for the band, with more music set to follow throughout 2025. Their evolution from high school music enthusiasts, encouraged by their teacher, to a national success story is one to celebrate. The release of their debut EP “Minivan” and its successor “Happiness In A Place It Shouldn’t Be” showcases their growth and fan engagement, especially as they sold out venues both locally and internationally.
