Having supported big stars such as Drake and Coldplay on tour, sang at some of the biggest UK festivals such as Wireless, Lovebox and Hackney Weekend and with two UK no.1 singles to her name, Rita Ora hasn’t really done that bad!

She has just announced the release of her debut album ‘Ora’ that features a star- studded line-up of producers including Drake, Chase & Status, Will-i-am, Switch, Stargate, Fraser T Smith and The Dream. “I can’t believe how lucky I’ve been to work with these amazing people, we have all clicked and had such a good time in making my album,” Rita said when discussing her album (Roc Nation/Columbia Records) which is released on the 27th August, though you can pre-order it here.

In celebration of the release she will be playing two exclusive headline shows in the UK - Manchester Sound Control 29th August and London’s Scala 30th August, both which sold out in the first 30 minutes of going on sale! She will also be making special appearances at London’s G-A-Y on 25th August and at the Notting Hill Carnival on August 27th.
