Alternative artist RØRY has released her highly-anticipated debut album, RESTORATION, via SADCØRE Records. Described by Metal Hammer as “an autobiographical rollercoaster,” the album is an inspirational and moving journey, rooted in discovering self-love and its transformational power.

On the album, RØRY reveals:
“In 2019, I heard a voice: ‘Everything you lost will be restored.’ It could have been a manic delusion, or it could have been the voice of God… who knows. But I held onto it like it was true, and somehow, it became true.
“I’ve spent years putting myself back together; finding peace, sobriety, a family, and a second chance at the dream I thought I’d destroyed forever. RESTORATION is that story: grief, addiction, family dysfunction, and the desperate fight to stay alive when everything feels broken. But it’s also about what comes after—the hope, the happiness, the redemption.
“No matter your history or your struggles, there’s always a way back. This is my story of rebuilding. The beginning of my next chapter. Maybe it can be the beginning of yours, too.”
To celebrate the release of the record, RØRY has also shared the anthemic ‘WOLVES’, a raw and deeply emotional track about loss and the overwhelming weight of grief.
On the vulnerability of the new single, RØRY comments:
“‘WOLVES’ is the most desperate song I’ve ever written. It’s about grief—the kind that grips you in its teeth and doesn’t let go. I lost my mum to cancer, and this song is my way of saying there is literally nothing I wouldn’t do to have her back, even for a second. Including throwing away my own life.”
‘WOLVES’ is the final single release from RESTORATION, following previous singles ‘One Drink Away‘, ‘SORRY I’M LATE‘, ‘In The Bible‘, ‘Blossom‘, and ‘MORALITY $UICIDE‘.
In March, RØRY will be embarking on her biggest headline tour to date across iconic venues throughout the UK, including London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town. Multiple dates across the tour are now completely sold out, with the remaining dates on low ticket warnings and a venue upgrade in Glasgow due to the phenomenal demand. With her fearless energy and deeply personal lyrics, this tour promises to be a defining moment for both her and her fans, cementing her place as an icon in the alternative music scene.
Speaking on the tour dates, RØRY shares:
“It feels surreal to be preparing for my biggest UK tour yet. There was a time I didn’t think I’d make it this far, but here I am, stronger than ever and ready to share RESTORATION with the world. This tour is a message to everyone who feels like they’re ‘too late’ to chase their dreams. I want every fan in the crowd to feel like they’re part of something bigger, like we’re all rebuilding and restoring together.”
