Biografie
Born around 20 miles outside of Atlanta, Georgia, U.S., Raury Tullis has reached international popularity for his eclectic mix of folk, indie, rap, soul, and R&B, defined by its lack of definition. The singer’s initial musical excursion came playing guitar in a cover band during high school, however this limited, unoriginal output failed to satisfy Raury’s desire to create something new. A few years later, having graduated from high school, Raury held an 18th birthday music festival, named Raurfest and announced he had signed with major-label Columbia Records. At the same time the singer-songwriter issued his debut musical release, the free digital mixtape “Indigo Child”.
Complete with soulful and impassioned lyrics, Kid Cudi-esque spoken word pieces, acoustic guitar rhythms and carefully crafted percussion, the record represents a modern upheaval of traditional genres. Following the release the singer contributed to SBTRKT’s 2014 full-length “Wonder Where We Land”, notably on the track “Higher”. Raury was subsequently shortlisted for the BBC Sound of 2015 poll, ultimately landing in fourth place, extending the anticipation for his studio full-length. In early 2015 he uploaded the single “Fly”, featuring Malik Shakur, to his SoundCloud page and was linked to some of the most relevant artists around today.

Atlanta vocalist Raury Alexander Tullis has been hot on the lips of many revered publication in the States and the UK following his placing on the BBC Sound Of list earlier this year. The young performer seemed destined to break from beneath the radar with his eclectic mixture of hip hop, R & B, soul and funk. A truly unique voice who has been picked up by the likes of Annie Mac and SBTRKT for collaborations and features.
With all this positive attention he is having no issues selling out preview tours as he test drives the material from his 'Indigo Child' EP and showcases some upcoming cuts from the debut album. It is surprising how many of the audience already know the words to 'God's Whisper' and feel confident to sing along with the performer. There is some real potential here and an enthusiastic following fast gathering already so we will have to stay posted to see where Raury takes his career next. There is a safe bet it is likely to be high into the heavens.

Raury is full of energy and heart-giving on stage. Dancing and jumping around, he provides a real live experience. His smooth voice and electric flow alternate majestically, as well as his guitar riffs and tribal vibes. Whether he talks about a former girlfriend or a lost childhood friend, he confides to the crowd and the crowd shelters him. Highly recommend !
