Scottish-based ONR appeared on the music scene practically overnight after leaking his first single, “Jericho” through indie music label, Leftwing, before being signed to Capitol Records.
With an understated
confidence and maturity, he cites David Bowie and Arcade Fire as his
musical inspirations. He has been featured in major publications such as
the The Village Voice, Huffington Post, BBC Introducing, CLASH Magazine,
Culture Collide, Alternative Press, Vents Magazine, and Lemonade
magazine. Later this year he will be performing at Leeds, Great
Escape, and on support dates with Mondo Cozmo. ONR is currently
working with producers Mark Crew (Bastille, Rag & Bone Man), Doc
McKinney (The Weeknd) and legendary mixer Spike Stent (Massive
Attack, Frank Ocean). His latest single “AMERICAN GODS” (released Feb
16th) was featured on New Music Friday, Young and Free, and Viral 50
UK playlists on Spotify, as well as Breaking Alternative, Best of the
Weekplaylists on Apple Music. His debut EP will be released spring of
2018.
