Rag'n'Bone Man returns with new single 'Human'
Rory Graham, AKA Rag'n'Bone Man returns with his long awaited new single Human, out now on Columbia Records / Best Laid Plans. This is a powerful tune that explores the powerhouse singer's own expression of mortal vulnerability, set to a stark chain-gang rhythm whilst encapsulating Graham's peculiar contradictions: his strength and gentleness. Such a strong and soulful tune! I adore it!
In person, Rory is the exact definition of a gentle giant. His appearance suggests something serious. A big man, bearded and with tattoos, but instead of "Hate and Love", he has the words "Soul and Funk" inked across his knuckles. A conveyor of myriad human emotions, themes of romance, pain and people run clear through Human and Rory's impending future track's, which will eventually conclude in the form of his debut album out early next year.
Having sold out a career defining show at The Village Underground in celebration of his collaborative Cadenza track Healed last month, Rory is currently in the midst of an extensive summer festival tour. With storming sets at The Great Escape, Glastonbury plus many more already under his belt, Rory is now set to bring his staggering vocal mastery to a plethora of further festival dates in the coming weeks.
