With his hit "Human", British singer Rag'n'Bone Man has written an absolute global hit that went straight to number 1 in the singles charts in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and recently broke the 1 billion stream mark on Spotify. In 2017, Rag'n'Bone Man was honored with the BRIT Award as British Breakthrough Act and the "Critics' Choice Award" in his home country and received the Echo in the categories "Best Newcomer International" and "Best Artist International" in this country. In 2018, "Human" was named "British Single of the Year", while his album "Human" was nominated for "British Album Of The Year" and he was nominated for "British Male Solo Artist". However, it would be unfair to reduce the artist to his hit. Rag'n'Bone Man is far more than a one-hit wonder, as he has long since proven with his two albums and tracks such as "Skin" and "Anyway Away From Here" feat. His single "Giant", a collaboration with Calvin Harris, was also nominated for "Song of the Year" at the 2020 BRIT Awards. He is coming to Germany for three concerts in November.

Rory Graham grew up in the south of England as the child of a family of musicians and was fascinated by blues music from an early age. However, the singer took his first musical steps in hip-hop when he became active as a rapper in a drum'n'bass crew at the age of 15 under the name Rag'n'Bonez. He released an album with his crew Rum Committee and toured for the first time before devoting himself to his solo project under the name Rag'n'Bone Man in 2010. His debut EP "Bluestown" (2012) and "Dog N Bone" (2013) led to a record deal with High Focus in 2013. The British singer entered the German charts with his EP "Wolves " in 2014 (position 44) and played at the legendary Glastonbury Festival in 2015 as a new discovery presented by the BBC, which also landed him a record deal with Columbia. After appearances at the Reading Festival and Montreaux Jazz, Rag'n'Bone Man released his single "Human" in 2016, which brought him international recognition. After reaching number 1 in Germany, Switzerland and Austria, the single "Human " just missed the top spot in the UK at number 2. Rag'n'Bone Man' s debut album "Human" finally conquered the charts. It entered the charts at number 1 in both the UK and Switzerland, while it only just missed out in Germany (number 2) and Austria (number 4). In the USA, the album reached number 117 on the Billboard 200. Already adorned with several gold records, his second album "Life by Misadventure" also entered the charts at number 1 in the UK in 2021 and reached number 5 in Germany. In addition to the balladic "Anyway Away From Here", it is "All You Ever Wanted" that gives him another big hit with an indie rock-influenced sound. His current single "What Do You Believe In" once again shows Rag'n'Bone Man to be modern and innovative. The charismatic Englishman combines his deep-rooted blues influences with modern pop and his unique voice in a catchy song, paving the way for his third album.
