I have no idea how this guy is not really famous. He got the feeling, the voice, the plays, that funk, Rai is amazing. I just can't stop listening to everything he does. I'm really REALLY impressed by him.
He's got "the look" too. Total package. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that he's had quite the solo career before he joined knower. Never heard of him before!
A very stunning musician with incredible multitask ability, one man bass piano singer band , with incredible indipendence of melodic singing line ,funky bass line and rhytmic melodic piano lines.An underrated great musician exploring the limits of solo performances.
Mate.... My son introduced me to you through San Francisco Streets... But never did I realise how talented you really are. You are a true Aussie talent. Remarkable what you do. Respect.
I discovered him with the studio version of San Francisco Street which was good and cozy but it really gave me no idea of all his talents. Love his live performance. He's a complete artist ^^
Would you be willing to share a basic rundown of your synth bass setup on the phatty? Like oscillator waveform choices, octave assignments of those, resonance setting(if any), etc... you ended up with a very electric bass sounding setting and it seems balanced throughout the full register (keyboard tracking?). I don’t want to copy but at least be steered in the general direction of the right sound. Love your music and appreciate your time!

He is. He's a god damn Australian hero
Me either. Shows how depressing the popular music scene is

TJ Blackmore yeah he's a good looking guy with a very particular appearance. apparently he's well known in australia but not so much outside
Totally agree. He's amazing!
His left hand alone kills many bass player careers...
Lol I was just thinking that myself.. and I'm a bass player. It's like his left hand has its own brain.
I just realized that's him! What a sound.
Pico Man i was thinking th4 exact same thing dude
Rai's musicianship is absolutely off the charts. 🤯
Here from KNOWER's videos. Was not expecting Rai to have pipes! This is a great performance!
One the greatest musician of our time

Anyone have lyrics/ chords written out?!

I have to admit I was unimpressed with his voice at first, but here he sounds somewhat like how Adam Levine would sound if he was a LOT cooler.
