Rag‘n’Bone Man will play OAT gig in June
Triple BRIT Award winner Rag‘n’Bone Man is heading to Scarborough’s Open Air Theatre next summer.
The Human and Life By Misadventure hit-maker heads to the Yorkshire coast on Saturday, June 24.
Peter Taylor, venue programmer at Scarborough OAT, said: “This will be another brilliant OAT show.
“Rory undoubtedly has the voice of a generation and has created some of the most cherished music of recent years.
"His live shows are incredible, so we are delighted to be able to welcome him to the Yorkshire coast.
“Scarborough OAT is a magical venue, so to bring such a special talent as Rag’n’Bone Man here makes for a perfect combination.”
Rag’n’Bone Man – aka Rory Graham – rose to prominence in 2016 with the release of the worldwide smash hit Human, which showcased a blend of traditional blues, hip-hop and ‘an era-defining voice’.
He began collecting his dedicated fan base early on in his career, one that has continued to grow and sell out tours around the globe.
Having won the 2017 BRIT’s British Breakthrough Act and receiving the BRIT’s Critics’ Choice Award in the same year, he cemented his success with the recordbreaking release of his fourtimes platinum number one debut album, Human.
A plethora of international accolades followed as well as and a further BRIT Award for Best Single of the Year in 2018 for Human.
Life by Misadventure, Graham’s second Number One album with Columbia Records, arrived in May 2021 and spent seven weeks in the Top 10.
The album boasted a renewed sense of purpose and an entirely new energy in singles such as All You Ever
Wanted, Anywhere Away From Here, Alone and Crossfire.
Rag‘n’Bone Man joins Sting, Blondie, Pulp, rock supergroup Hollywood Vampires, chart-toppers N-Dubz, Olly Murs and the International Tour of Mamma Mia! among Scarborough Open Air Theatre’s 2023 headliners – with many more acts still to be announced.
