Victor Ray
Born in Uganda, raised in Newcastle and now residing in London, 24-year-old Victor Ray got his start as a musician the hard way: busking.
Singing his heart out on the streets forced him to learn patience and showmanship, how to win even the frostiest crowd over and make them care.
Musically, Victor has absorbed the singer-songwriter tradition that has always been ingrained in Newcastle’s live music scene, not to mention one of his biggest inspirations, Ed Sheeran.
He also cites Donny Hathaway, Michael Jackson, J. Cole and Usher (whose last name - Raymond - partly inspired Victor’s stage name) as influences to his timeless sound. But rather than describe it as a take on R&B or something hip-hop influenced, Victor is proving there’s space for young black British talent making authentic, popular music.
