Description

In this episode of My Music, host Graham Coath sits down with the incredible band Re:0 – Rio, Alex, James, and Jay – for a conversation that feels part interview, part 70s quiz show panel, and entirely unmissable.
We dive into their unique sound: heavy yet cinematic, intricate yet catchy, sometimes even sung in multiple languages. The band shares how they collaborate on songwriting, from Rio’s late-night melodies to the way each member adds their own flair. You’ll hear about constructive disagreements, random drum patterns, and why honesty (with humour) keeps the creative process alive.
Things get personal too. From music saving lives during dark times, to family influences, to the unusual places songs get written (yes, even the toilet), the band opens up with refreshing honesty and laughter.
We also explore their ambitions – from orchestras to dream venues like Download Festival, the Roundhouse, and Madison Square Garden. Along the way, you’ll hear their guilty-pleasure playlists, the “switch” Rio makes on stage, and the unshakable bond that powers their music.
🎧 Expect laughter, honesty, and some brilliant behind-the-scenes insights into how one of the most exciting emerging bands is building their sound and their future.
