RIIZE, selected by 'Guitar.com' as the 2026 Asia Rising Guitar Artist... the only one in K-pop


Boy group RIIZE was the only K-pop artist to be included in the list of Asia's rising guitar artists selected by the UK guitar specialty magazine 'Guitar.com.'

On April 9 (local time), 'Guitar.com' introduced on its official website that bands in the Asia-Pacific region are showcasing guitars across a diverse musical spectrum, stating that guitar music is expanding its audience across new generations and creating new fusion stages in various regions. The magazine mentioned that RIIZE is the fastest rising team in K-pop since their debut in 2023, highlighting that although they cover various genres such as pop, R&B, and dance, their debut song was titled 'Get A Guitar.'

In particular, it focused on members Wonbin and Anton's deep connection with the guitar, noting that the two members reflect their affection for guitar music in the group's activities. In an interview, Wonbin and Anton emphasized that the guitar is an instrument with a communicative power that transcends language and genre, saying, "It is even more meaningful that our debut song is 'Get A Guitar.' Playing the guitar has helped broaden our musical perspective, and the thrill we felt performing with the guitar on stage is something we will never forget."

Meanwhile, RIIZE attracted 420,000 spectators across 21 locations worldwide during their first world tour 'RIIZING LOUD,' and Wonbin and Anton showcased an electric guitar and bass guitar ensemble during the intro performance of the 'Get A Guitar' stage.
