A BRADFORD artist is embracing the sounds that first inspired his journey with the launch of his latest project.
Bradford singer-songwriter Faheem Main, who appeared on The Voice UK, has launched a new music project called Raw Voice that channels the blues and soul influences that first inspired him to make music.
After exploring a variety of genres, including commercially focused dance music, Mr Main has spent recent years refining his sound and reconnecting with the style that feels most authentic to him.
This project feels like coming home
He said: "This project feels like coming home creatively.
"After years of exploring different styles and opportunities, I’ve found a direction that feels completely honest.
"Raw Voice is about connection, vulnerability and creating music that genuinely reflects who I am today."
The Raw Voice project places authentic storytelling, live musicianship, and raw vocal expression at its heart.
Earlier this month, Mr Main was the featured artist at the launch of Vocal Venue’s new premium live music format.
This week, he released Another Life, the debut single under the Raw Voice project.
Produced by Sam Cheshire and Mr Main himself, the song reflects a period of personal growth and artistic rediscovery.
More releases are planned throughout the year, with a slate of live performances also in the works.

His first show of this new era takes place at Leeds Playhouse on June 20.
He is set to perform at Crickfest in Cullingworth on August 30, Howard Assembly Rooms on September 5, and will make his debut with Sofar Sounds on September 17.
For Mr Main, Raw Voice marks the culmination of years of growth, exploration and artistic development.
The project draws inspiration from contemporary soul, blues and timeless singer-songwriter traditions.
