Rag‘n’Bone Man and the Thursday Theme

Jo chats to Rag‘n’Bone Man about his new album ‘Life By Misadventure’, which is out on April 23rd. Plus the Thursday Theme - songs about rumours.

Jo chats to Rag‘n’Bone Man about his new album ‘Life By Misadventure’, which is out on April 23rd. His latest single ‘All You Ever Wanted’ is her Infatuation this week.

Rag‘n’Bone Man returns three years after his ground breaking, award winning debut, ‘Human’, which was a phenomenal success; a 4x platinum album which shot to #1 week of release in the UK, became the fastest-selling album by a male artist for the entire decade and earned him x 3 BRIT awards and Ivor Novello Awards. The album has since been streamed more than 5 Billion times, sold 4.2M copies and charted number one in 6 countries, whilst the single ‘Human’ has now sold more than 10M copies.

Plus this week’s Thursday Theme is rumours, as a nod to the anniversary of the release of Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Rumours’. It was released on this day in 1977 and went on to become one of the best-selling albums of all time. Send all your song suggestions related to rumours to jo.whiley@bbc.co.uk
