RØRY has announced her debut album.
'Restoration' will arrive through SADCØRE Records on January 31 and features the previously shared singles Blossom, Mortality $uicide and In The Bible. It'll also include the newly shared Sorry I'm Late, a powerfully cathartic alt-rock track. RØRY said:
"I’m always fucking late… so of course, I’m dropping my debut album when I’m 40. My excuse? I can’t exactly say my train was cancelled or that I was sick. Only, I was sick. For a long time. Sick with grief, pain, addiction—and eventually sick of my own bullshit. But I’m better now. Sobriety, therapy, a family. I never saw any of that coming… 'Restoration' is my testimony of how I turned my shit show of a life around. It feels like the first hopeful record I’ve ever written. I want people who hate themselves, and who are struggling with drinking and relationships to understand that someone can come at any moment and save them. And that person is themselves."
The announcement follows news of RØRY's biggest headline UK tour to date, which will take the singer-songwriter to eight venues across the UK next spring, including London's O2 Forum Kentish Town. She also won Best UK Breakthrough Artist at this year's Heavy Music Awards.
RØRY continued: "As I turn 40, it feels surreal to be preparing for my biggest UK tour yet. There was a time I didn’t think I’d make it this far, but here I am, stronger than ever and ready to share 'Restoration' with the world. This tour is a message to everyone who feels like they’re ‘too late’ to chase their dreams. I want every fan in the crowd to feel like they’re part of something bigger, like we're all rebuilding and restoring together."
RØRY will also headline the War Child's Day Of The Girl show at London's 100 Club next Tuesday (October 8). Tickets for all dates are on sale now.
