RBYN

RBYN is a duo formed by vocalist Ruth Berkeley and multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Yates. Their music often deals with personal struggle, with Berkeley's experiences with depression and anxiety informing much of their material. They released their debut album 'Northern Lights' in 2015, followed by 'Illusions' two years later.

Their 2020 single 'Out The Dark' became their most successful track, with its themes of resilience connecting with listeners. Another song, 'Beautiful Disaster,' appears in their catalog alongside it. The duo has worked with artists like Benjamin Clementine and Young Fathers at various points.

RBYN's sound combines atmospheric electro-pop with introspective lyrics, built around Berkeley's vocals and Yates's instrumental work. Their music has appeared in some films and television shows, though they initially faced skepticism from parts of the industry for what was considered an unconventional approach.
