Rise (Daryl Braithwaite album)

Rise is a studio album by Australian singer Daryl Braithwaite, released in November 1990. It was his third solo album after leaving the band Sherbet and marked a significant comeback for Braithwaite after a period of relative quiet in his career.

The album spawned several successful singles, including "Higher Than Hope," "Rise," "The Horses" (a cover of the Rickie Lee Jones song), and "Don't Hold Back Your Love." "The Horses" became Braithwaite's signature song and a number one hit in Australia.

Rise showcased a contemporary pop-rock sound, featuring production from Simon Hussey and backing vocals from Margaret Urlich, among others. The album was a commercial success, reaching number 3 on the Australian ARIA Albums Chart and achieving multi-platinum certification. It solidified Braithwaite's status as a leading solo artist in Australia and remains a popular and well-regarded album within his discography. The album is considered a classic of Australian popular music.
