Raye « This Tour May Contain New Music »

RAYE brings her This Tour May Contain New Music to The O2, London, on 20 May 2026. Raised in Croydon, the singer, songwriter and producer has traced her own path between pop, R&B and the club textures that shaped her early collaborations with Jax Jones and Jonas Blue. After years writing for others — from Beyoncé to Little Mix — she went independent and pushed a more narrative, personal format that crystalised on My 21st Century Blues in 2023: soul inflections, piano-led ballads, darker electronics and careful vocal arrangements.

On stage, expect a set that pivots between confession and late-night pulse, with room for reworked hits, deep cuts and fresh material hinted by the tour’s title. RAYE’s live approach leans on musicianship and dynamics: keys at the centre, a tight band, and a voice that moves from hushed intimacy to full release without overstatement. Back on home ground, The O2 offers the scale for her stories to expand, letting new songs find their shape alongside the tracks that defined her recent chapter.
