Rayko/KRB is an American Rock/Pop/Hip-Hop act from Miami, Florida. The band was originally formed in New Jersey by Rayko Pipes (lead vocals/lyrics, real name Ray Einhorn) and Kenny Ryan (guitars, real name Dan Rainey) when they attended Caldwell College together in the early 2000's. The band has gone through many different members and styles, always maintaining a presence on both the local and national music scenes. Popular Miami guitarist Milo Valendia got his start with Rayko, and continues to play shows with the KRB and other major South Florida bands.
In late 2005, Rayko/KRB signed with Miami-based independent record label BinaryStar Music. In February 2006, the band released its debut EP, titled "Six" which was quickly embraced by podcasters like C.C. Chapman and internet radio programmers alike. In June 2007, Rayko Pipes was named "Reader's Choice Best Hip-hop Vocalist" in Broward-Palm Beaches New Times Newspaper. The following month, July 2007 "The RockStar Poor LP" was released and the emotive ballad "Simple Love Song" placed 2 on The PMC Top10.
In October 2007, Rayko/KRB entered Bodog's Battle of the Bands (Season 2) winning both Miami showcases they performed in at Studio A. In January 2007, the band performed at Tabu in Orlando and was one of 3 bands that won Bodog's Florida Semi-Regionals and advanced to the Regional showcase March 2008 in Atlanta, GA at Center Stage.
In May 2008, Rayko/KRB became the first Florida band in history to play Sunfest, a major South Florida music festival, multiple times. They shared the stage with The Black Crowes, Stephen Marley, and John Legend, among others. It was the 2nd time the band played the main stage at this event in 3 years.
Rayko/KRB is in rotation on Clear Channel radio and is also a strong performer in the Podcasting world; they have been featured on Sirius Satellite Radio’s Podshow, hosted by former MTV VJ Adam Curry. Also, the band has been presented on Blade Radio in Germany, RockCast in Italy, Fumiaki Podcast in Japan and Clever Little Pod in the United Kingdom, amongst hundreds of others worldwide. The band was nominated for 6 Miami "Satus Quo Awards" in December, receiving Top 3 honors for "Best Hip Hop Artist". Recently, the single 'Rockstar Poor' was entered into the everyday rotation on internet radio powerhouse, Jango.com.
After two studio albums (The Rockstar Poor LP & Six), a Top 40 worldwide finish (out of 10,000 bands) in the Bodog Battle, tons of high profile gigs, and multiple awards- Rayko Pipes ( 2007 New Times Hip Hop Vocalist of the Year ) and the KRB will be releasing a new album for 2010 - teamed up with production wizards The Writers and releasing the record under Bromfield Music Co. & GreenLynx Entertainment Group.
