Universal Music Publishing is delighted to welcome Raleigh Ritchie to the UMP family.

His musical style is a unique amalgamation of R&B, soul, indie and pop - of which Raleigh himself says, “I know what my kind of music is I just don't know what to call it”.

Following his first release ‘The Middle Child EP’,  Raleigh he has  just released ‘Black and Blue’ – a four track EP that moves from the bittersweet ‘Stronger Than Ever’ to ‘Bloodsport’ – a song that flits between tender vocals and half-rapped admonishments.

Both EPs have won him critical acclaim in the music press. The Fly describe Raleigh Ritchie's sound as “a combination of pop edge and emotional angst” declaring him “an exciting new R&B talent”, whilst The Line of Best Fit review ‘The Middle Child EP’: "As gritty as it is groomed, the lush emotion of his ‘The Middle Child EP’ depicts, with striking individuality, the intimate moments of the underdog in the face of everyday agonies”.
