Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man plays a Sofa Session for Jo, including music from his new album Life By Misadventure, and a cover of a vintage gem.

Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man鈥檚 2017 landmark debut Human was a phenomenal success; a 4x platinum album which shot to No.1 week of release in the UK, became the fastest-selling album by a male artist for the entire decade and earned him Brit and Ivor Novello Awards.

If that鈥檚 a hard act to follow, Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man tore up the rule book and went to Nashville to write and record what would become 鈥楲ife By Misadventure鈥�, returning to the UK just before the pandemic first erupted. While a dose of heavy blues and soul lives within some of these new tunes, the majority of this new album finds Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man taking a huge step forward as an artist, a songwriter, and a singer capable of showcasing tremendous warmth and real emotion with every breath.

Life By Misadventure is the perfect tonic for these times. An album of depth and soul, about growing up and moving forward.

Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man is doing a UK tour in October and November.
