Rag'n'Bone Man to play Forest Live gig at Westonbirt Arboretum near Bristol

Rag'n'Bone Man is going to play a gig at a stunning venue near Bristol this year.

The singer-songwriter, whose real name is Rory Charles Graham, will perform at Westonbirt Arboretum in Gloucestershire as part of Forest Live, the summer concert series presented by Forestry England.

Known for his distinctive baritone voice, Graham won British Breakthrough Act and the Critics' Choice Award at the Brit Awards in 2017.

He then cemented his success with the record breaking release of his 4x platinum #1 album, Human, and a further Brit Award for British Single for its title track in 2018.

The album has been recognised internationally, earning Graham sell-out tours and festival appearances around the globe.

Subsequent side projects include the monster hit collaboration track Giant with Calvin Harris, and he is currently working on his next album.

Forest Live is a major outdoor live music series held every year by Forestry England.

It introduces forests to new audiences in unique, natural woodland arenas around the country - and more than 1.9 million people have attended a Forest Live concert in the last nineteen years.

Going to a Forest Live concert helps look after the nation's forests sustainably, with income from ticket sales helping to create beautiful places for people to enjoy, wildlife to flourish and trees to grow.

The other acts announced to perform this year's Forest Live series are Keane, Will Young, James Morrison and Madness.

Tickets

Rag'n'Bone Man performs at Westonbirt Arboretum, a 40-minute drive from Bristol, on Thursday, June 11.

Tickets are priced at £38.50 (plus £4.85 booking fee).

They go on sale from 9am on Friday, January 17 from the Forestry England box office (tel 03000 680400) or on Forestry England's website.
