Rag 'n' Bone Man's single 'Human', which has been made Track Of The Day on Radio 1 and added to the Radio 1 In New Music We Trust playlist since its release last month, has been transformed in this acoustic session which is exclusively streaming below.
The south London-based singer, who has previously sold out Village Underground despite not even having put out a debut album, fuses elements of blues, soul and hip hop and has garnered comparisons to Cee Lo Green for the sheer majestic power of his vocals.
The session is filmed in a room that offers superb natural reverb for the accompaniment, which comes from an acoustic guitar and piano only.
It's a must-listen for anyone loving the original single as his heartfelt delivery, empahsised by the way he closes his eyes during the most intense parts, is what makes this live verion so arresting.
The bearded and heavily tattoed singer has the credentials to become a superstar by the time his album drops next year and the below tour dates are big but certainly intimate comapred to what's likely to come.
You will be able to watch the full session and an interview with him on Rag 'N' Bone Man on Upfront with got2b on 4Music, tonight (5 September) at 6pm.
