Rag'n'Bone Man had something of a stalking experience with two obsessed fans
The 39-year-old singer revealed that two of his fans were so enthusiastic that they would come to each and every gig no matter where it was in the world and found the whole thing to be quite "disconcerting", especially as they would wait for him at his tour bus.
Speaking on the 'Things People Do' podcast, he said: "There used to be these two girls that would turn up to every single one of my gigs and at one point I was like, ‘How did you get here from there?’
“You’d be playing in Brixton and then you’re doing a gig in, like, Switzerland and they’re there. Rah! They’d always be waiting outside the tour bus… that frightened me a little bit.
"You’re tired, you probably only had a few hours sleep because it’s bumpy then you open the door and you’re like, 'Oh, f****** hell, hello!’ It’s a bit disconcerting.
"They always used to wear the same things at the gigs as well… the same colours. It was like they were going, ‘It’s me again!"
Meanwhile, the 'Human' hitmaker - whose real name is Rory Charles Graham - adopted his unorthodox stage name during his teenage years but almost a decade after he released his it single, admitted that it sounds "so stupid", although one of its advantages is that it is rather unforgettable.
He said: "I grew up on blues music and they all had funny, silly names. I always thought it sounded like a blues name. Now I’ve had points where I kind of regret that name because it’s so stupid.
“But at the same time, people don’t forget it – and Rory Graham just just sounds like a Scottish folk singer.”
