Vocalist

The Resume

    (January 29, 1985- )
    Born in Uckfield, East Sussex, England, United Kingdom
    Birth name was Rory Charles Graham
    Recorded the album 'Human' (2017)
    Recorded the singles 'Human' (2016), 'Skin' (2017), and 'Giant' (with Calvin Harris, 2019)

Why he might be annoying:

    He was expelled from Kings Academy in Ringmer.
    His breakthrough single, 'Human,' did not receive much attention in Britain until Emily Middlemas covered it on 'X Factor.'
    At his wedding, he and the bride wore designer tracksuits (2019).
    AllMusic noted, 'With his massive bulk, tattoo-covered arms, nose ring, shaved head, enormous beard, and typical garb of hoodie and jeans, [he] looked like an escapee from an early 2000s nu-metal band.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    Before he made a living from music, he worked as a caregiver for people with Asperger's syndrome and Down's syndrome.
    He chose his recording moniker as a tribute to the characters of Steptoe and Son.
    Interview magazine on his voice: 'Saying it's booming and soulful with an ability to fluctuate from high peaks to powerful tenor would be underselling it.'
