On the announcement of her upcoming album, RØRY comments:
“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.”

In celebration of RØRY turning 40, exclusive signed and numbered CD, Vinyl and Cassette options will be available to pre-order for the month of October here: its-rory.com.

On the announcement of her 2025 UK tour dates, RØRY comments:
“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.”

Before that though, RØRY will also be headlining the sold-out War Child’s Day of the Girl show at London’s legendary 100 Club on 8th October.

ABOUT RØRY:
Using rock music as a way of inspiring recovery, healing, and community, RØRY is a different kind of icon in the alternative scene, writing “the most intimate and intensely human music possible” (Rock Sound).From the release of her debut EP Good Die Young (2022) and Family Drama (2023), to back-to-back sold out headline tours, over 50 million streams, and major festival appearances in 2024, the rise of RØRY has been sensational and inspirational. Without major label backing, it has been driven solely by a rapidly growing dedicated fanbase, drawn to her raw, cathartic, rock lyricism.

Described by Kerrang! as possessing “an authenticity that is astonishing to witness”, she also runs the ADHD Awareness account @ADHD_Love with her partner where they have over 3 million followers, and have released a best-selling book to help reduce the shame felt within the neurodivergent community.

As RØRY turns 40, she’s not just celebrating a milestone she once thought she’d never reach—she’s at the height of her creative powers. Recently crowned “Best UK Breakthrough Artist” at the Heavy Music Awards, she’s shattering every industry expectation and proving it’s never too late. Since the release of her debut EP GOOD DIE YOUNG in 2022, RØRY has amassed over 30 million streams, built a fan base of over 1 million, and sold out two UK tours.

Backed by heavyweights like Kerrang!, Rock Sound, and BBC Radio 1, she’s proving that authenticity and raw storytelling resonate on a massive scale. As the leader of the #37club, RØRY is determined to make recovery as iconic as the tragic #27club. She writes for those who’ve been told they’re too old, too broken, or too late to chase their dreams. Her explosive sets at Download Festival and Slam Dunk 2024 left tents overflowing with fans hungry for more.
