Rory Wilkinson: 

Rory Wilkinson is an artist who transforms raw emotion into soul-stirring music. With a powerful and soulful voice, he delivers deeply personal stories, pep talks, and memoirs, often told from the perspective of different aspects of himself—his emotions, vices, and life experiences. His indie-blues style, infused with melancholic undertones, captures both vulnerability and strength, making his music resonate with listeners on an intimate level.

Over the winter of 2024, Rory has been hard at work with producer Neil Brock at The Crypt Studios in Crouch Hill, London, crafting two new singles. These tracks mark the beginning of a bigger vision—an upcoming EP titled Home Truths, set for release later this year. His debut single, Truth, is scheduled to drop on February 28th, 2025.

The Story Behind ‘Truth’

Truth was born from a deeply personal experience. After the abrupt end of a long-term relationship, Rory found himself reflecting on the emotions and conversations that were left unsaid. The song serves as an outlet for these unspoken truths, exploring the importance of honesty and self-expression.

His journey took an even more profound turn during the 2020 pandemic when he battled pneumonia and faced a terrifying brush with death. This life-altering experience forced him to re-evaluate his identity and aspirations. It also inspired him to encourage others to embrace their truths—whether in love, self-acceptance, or personal authenticity.

With a punchy chorus and impassioned delivery, Truth channels Rory’s raw emotions into a powerful anthem of self-reflection and courage. As he continues his musical journey, his message remains clear: speak your truth, embrace who you are, and never hold back.

Stay tuned for the release of Truth and the unfolding of Home Truths later this year!
