Introducing: Ramin New 'Alternative' Musical Theatre Star Unveils New Video & UK Live Dates
Thursday, 09 February 2012
Written by Jon Stickler
Ramin doesn’t look like your average Olivier-nominated musical theatre superstar - playing roles including Jean Valjean in 'Les Miserables' and as the iconic Phantom in 'The Phantom of the Opera', including the 25th anniversary spectacular at the Royal Albert Hall - and that’s because he is so much more than you would expect.
He has an arm full of tattoos – everything from trees to angels to poetry – and a trilby straight from Shoreditch. He looks more like someone from Red Hot Chili Peppers that you never noticed before. Looking somewhere between Latin matinee idol and ruggedly handsome Brando-esque actor, Ramin's voice is a thing of natural wonder.
His debut album ‘Ramin’ is out on March 5th. Produced by Tom Nichols (Celine Dion, Hayley Westenra) it’s a diary entry from one of the world’s great vocal talents that includes not only his own compositions but covers of Bryan Adams and Muse songs, his take on the 'Music of the Night' from 'The Phantom of the Opera' as well as brand new material from songwriting heavyweights like Ryan Tedder (Leona Lewis’ 'Bleeding Love').
'Ramin' track-listing is as follows:
1. Show Me light
2. Coming Home
3. Music of the Night
4. Broken Home
5. Guiding Light
6. Song of the Human Heart
7. Constant Angel
8. Til I Hear You Sing
9. Eyes of a Child
10. Inside My World
11. Everything I Do (I Do It for You)
12. Cathedrals
Ramin will take to the road in May when he’ll perform tracks from his new album and more up and down the UK. For more information on Ramin, please visit www.raminofficial.com.
