Was priviledged to seem him LIVE last November in Brixton when the tickets were CHEAP was the most amazing concert ive ever attended (out of thousands) hes beyond anything ive ever heard...the small venue (the Electric) made it even more special....My BF was stopped on the stairs by a girl who said *are you his brother* (same beard)
I love when guys talk about their emotions and feelings. Especially through songs and from male singers. Oof! My heart melts. So sweet. Congrats Rag’N’Bone Man. Love Human but Grace will hold a special place in my heart. Grey’s Anatomy was such a moment with that single. Wow!

Great interview on both ends, the person giving the interview and Rag'n'Bone. Please people watch the whole interview don't just skip to the part about his name. There's a lot of great content here don't cheat yourself.
I love this guy, even though I'm a Philadelphia Eagles' fan and seeing him wear the enemy's gear breaks my heart. He's an incredible talent and a gift to music. Still love you, Rags.
I'm listening to this interview and I love to see you as who you are "a human" I heard this song last year at the OT 2020 from Spain. I like the lyrics and I wanted to see who is really singing that cool song. It really gets me in my heart. We human go through so many things in life and most of the time are because we make choices in life whether they are good or not. Congratulations you are an exceptional human. God bless you.
this man reminds me off my dads old friend his voice his build but the only difference is the beard my dads friend had a big zz top beard and they were both in to music and played the guitar very well and it has totally rubbed off on me I love rag n bone man and being a londoner I totally know were the name comes from. His talent is very rare and should never be just about looks and fashion love this bloke.♬♪♩
I can relate to Rory with our parents. My mum raised me most of my life and how my mum shows me how to treat people. I'm looking forward to your concert in Bath in July 31st x
i wish this man get huge recognition soon because he's really a great artist and he looks and sound so kind, humble and genuine. treats i love and makes me respect an artist. i wish one day someone in america gets the time to interview my boys like this. people only have focused in their fandom and the hype, when in reality the fact that they have so passionate fans it's because they ARE as passionate about what they do, and the stories they tell in their music is so amazing and transcending... oh man... someday i hope :') btw, dind't know rory was from uk... of course that makes him a great artist. a lot of legends has come out from there.
Makes me feel old, people who don't know that rag'n'bone men were the original recyclers, going street to street, and anyone with something they wanted rid of but wouldn't fit in the dustbin, was taken, often in exchange for a few pence [pennies]. Although mostly recycling metals, their traditional cry was Rag n bones as tey toured the streets, with horse and cart. Nine Simone has a song, presumably American, 'Rag's an' old iron', in which she sings the title like a street cry, so it should be familiar to Americans, I think this jock is just ignorant.
Back in the 60's when I was a child I remember the rag and bone man coming down the road my granddad would give me a spade to pick up the horse poo for his roses.
Rag'n'Bone men came around with a Horse and cart, knocking on doors asking if you had any bric a brac, old clothes, furniture etc you wanted to sell. It wasn't so much scrap as he says here, although they traded in gold, silver, anything really tbh.
No youre wrong. A rag and bone man would indeed come along in his cart shouting rag bone and that's exactly what he wanted. Rags to be then taken to b un stitched and buttons removed anything salvaged from it. Cash for rags and the bones were carcasses of animals mainly horses, to be sold to the glue factory.
I grew up in Manchester, northern England and well remember the rag and bone men coming around. He would give my mother a sandstone block for scrubbing the front steps with. So back in the 50s I guess it was still happening.
In Scotland in the 50s Man used to come round (originally with a Barrow then horse and cart), the streets shouting or using a small trumpet, Rag and Bones take anything and give the kids balloons or little toys in exchange
Rag'n'bone man where from 1800s in England, they would come around and buy off you the rags that were so torn up it couldn't be used anymore, and your old soup bones. they would take them back and tear them up for paper and the bones for toys and utensils.
Such a pity folks like this take names from things they obviously have no clue about. I like his music and his voice it’s just a pity he did not bother to check the origins of the name he took, as it’s far from “a London thing” the rag and bone men were in reality the first of the recyclers, and they were all over the country, and as he says they would come around on their horse and carts calling out “rags and bones” which they would collect and give you a few coppers for or if you were a kid maybe a balloon and they would then take it to be recycled.
Sir, centuries ago there was a man who came around just for your rags and bones. They would grind it up for fertiliser for the crops. Sorry, World History is a passion.
Great musician but doesn't know the origins of his name. Rag'n'bone man went around through the centuries collecting torn up cloth Rags that were of no use anymore and the old bones from food that had been used in soup and then given to the dogs and had no use anymore. Turned into fertilizer then sold.
I was just introduced to this guy over New Orleans radio and am becoming obsessed. His music is fuxking powerful. Great interview!
I am 61 years old and have heard many interviews. This is one of the best. Most excellent job. Thank you. You have answered my questions.
Great Rag'n'Bone Man!
And also Maxwell guides the interview such good, he's a beast!
this dude is awesome one of the biggest in Jamaica right now
alpha Jaxon cool
I absolutely love this guy! Great interview! Might be a bit underground in the US right now but I believe he's on the verge of exploding here!
Good interview first time I’ve seen or heard his show. Rag and bone man has worked hard to get where he is right now and well deserved.
Love this interviewer, hes saying things as it is. And hes actually listening good and beeing a human. Much love to both of you! :)
Never been big into a single artist, but not anymore I love all this guys music.
I really like rag n bone man
He has so strong voice even when he dont sing, WOW loves those big voices! Talent!
Good singer and a humble person.
The British show Steptoe and Son about the Rag and Bone trade was remade in America as Sanford and Son.
The Green Knight a Rag n Bone man is what we yanks call a "Junk Man"

Yes! He's English! Love him even more.
Glad you said English rather than British. x
Awesome person!
TRULY AWESOME. RAG N BONE MAN✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎼🎼🎼🎼
This man is amazing!
Rag'n'Bone men came around with a Horse and cart, knocking on doors asking if you had any bric a brac, old clothes, furniture etc you wanted to sell. It wasn't so much scrap as he says here, although they traded in gold, silver, anything really tbh.

Rags to be then taken to b un stitched and buttons removed anything salvaged from it. Cash for rags and the bones were carcasses of animals mainly horses, to be sold to the glue factory.
That's how it started yeah, but the Steptoe & Son era was mainly bric-a-brac etc.
The collecting of rags and bones began in the 1800s, well before the tv series.
When are you coming to the states on tour? LOVE your soulful voice and the Human and Wolves albums.
go Rory!
LOVE YA RAG N BONE MAN!! BEST SOULFUL VOICE EVER✔️✔️✔️🏆🏆🏆❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
The way I thought about it, especially after hearing "Human" is that that's what we are. We're rags and bones, but with a soul inside.
What a great guy !
still rockin the rumcom garms!
I grew up in Manchester, northern England and well remember the rag and bone men coming around. He would give my mother a sandstone block for scrubbing the front steps with. So back in the 50s I guess it was still happening.
Saw him at Alexandra Palace he is better live so talented and raw .
In Scotland in the 50s Man used to come round (originally with a Barrow then horse and cart), the streets shouting or using a small trumpet, Rag and Bones take anything and give the kids balloons or little toys in exchange
AMAZING😯😯😯😯😍😍😍😍
Bro......you aint lying.2 Women in my house when I was growing up....man, so true.
The soul and spirit of his sound and lyrics brings me the truth of Christ Jesus 😄
I am in love
Sanford and Son is the American remake of Steptoe and Son btw.
Rag'n'Bone Man....incredible!!! I also happen to love his hat....HTTR!
Rag'n'bone man where from 1800s in England, they would come around and buy off you the rags that were so torn up it couldn't be used anymore, and your old soup bones. they would take them back and tear them up for paper and the bones for toys and utensils.
Translating its a blues with rock'n roll under you skin! into the bone! that's a good meaning.
Tht was awesome
I instantly knew where he's name come from first time i heard of him back when he first started out.

Talking about Steptoe & Son like it was the Battle of Agincourt. God I feel old.
Love this guy. He has great voice.
He mentions Steptoe and Son, which is what Sanford and Son was based on. That's pretty cool.

His voice and looks really seem southern and like biker look lmao that accent doesn’t match
He’s not trying to be American lmfao
