The soul star Rag 'n' Bone Man is coming to Notodden!

Multi-platinum selling and multi-Brit Award-winning British soul and vocal phenomenon Rag 'N' Bone Man as one of the headliners for the big festival Saturday.

Rag 'N' Bone Man released new single "Lovers In A Past Life" with Calvin Harris on Friday. "Lovers In A Past Life" was streamed almost a million times within the first 24 hours, and today the current artist is being launched for Notodden. "We know that this launch has perfect timing," says a satisfied Jostein Forsberg in the Notodden Blues Festival.

Rag 'N' Bone Man has over 9 million monthly listeners on Spotify while his songs "Human" have 950 million streams, "Giant" has 655 million streams and "Skin" has been streamed 323 million times.

"We happily sell a lot of tickets a day. We are 180% above the sales we had at the same time last year. The 2023 festival then ended up with a new ticket record. We are now delighted to be able to surprise by launching the popular soul and pop phenomenon Rag 'N' Bone Man. We have rock Friday in a box with Deep Purple and TNT in place. Now we are putting effort into creating a folk festival on the festival Saturday," says Notodden Blues Festival general manager Halvor Sælebakke. "When we can add Rag 'N' Bone Man to the already launched Odd René Andersen, Ana Popovic & Fantastafunk Big Band Project and the new shooting star, D.K. Harrell, we are well on our way to creating a fantastic Saturday in Hovigs Hangar. This will surely give further momentum to already good ticket sales," says Sælebakke.
