Raye has announced that she will be touring The Euphoric Sad Show across the UK and Ireland from November 6th. The Tour is to promote the singer’s mini-album Euphoric Sad Songs.
Raye’s musical journey began with singles “By Your Side” released on October 28th 2916 and “You Don’t Know Me” released on December 9th 2016. The single “You Don’t Know Me” reached number 3 in the UK Official Singles Chart and placed Raye on the musical map.
The singer also co-wrote the single “Bigger” for Beyonce, which was featured on the soundtrack The Lion King: The Gift, providing the singer with international recognition.
The singer released her mini-album Euphoric Sad Songs on November 20h 2020 and is said to be inspired by the heartbreak, that she experienced in 2019 when she split from her partner. The singer described how she used her emotional experience to pen singles for the album.
The singer said that whilst on Tour with Khalid in 2019 she experienced an emotional breakdown and that her Instagram posts, with images of her crying, were due to her emotional state. The singer’s mini-album features nine singles, which she explained represent the “Nine stages of grief when a relationship ends”
The singer was signed to Polydor in 2014 for a four-album deal and said that she was unable to release any albums. The singer stated, “I want to make my album now, please that is all I want.” The singer is now managing her musical career independently.
The singer in describing her relationship with Polydor stated that they were a powerhouse who held different views in respect to her creative vision. Upon her departure from Polydor, the singer stated “I am very grateful to them for giving me a graceful smooth exit to start my next chapter as an artist”
The singer’s tour comes a year after the release of her mini-album and with hopes of her debut album finally being released the singer said “I’m ready to just drop [an album]”
