Influences
harmonies. the houses that we live in. the plants that grow around us. long conversations about everything. heart explosions. simple modulations, lo-fi disco, jazz chords, gentle funk, teary love songs, pop. motown, old folk songs, stevie wonder, eric satie, fleetwood mac, antena, old dub, dusty springfield, ned doheny, yellow magic orchestra, marcos valle, acoustic guitars, fireworks, music for dancing, the marine girls, delay, paul mccartney, small towns, spacey psych jazz, ELO, the supremes, the pointer sisters, the zombies, hobbit folk, paul simon, california soul, simple prog, really good drummers, ping pong, the science behind synthesizers, first kisses, bubblegum and anybody that sings us a song that sounds like themselves.
Danceable folk, homemade disco, and lost love laments; these are just a few facets of California-based Duo, Rubies. The poised and dynamic range of songwriting keeps the listener excited by offering fresh and honest versions of future dancefloor and living room classics. Simone Rubi (lead vocals, keyboards) entices the crowd while Terri Loewenthal (bass) keeps them dancing. Add some shimmering guitar, the harmonies and beats provided by machine or borrowed man, and try to resist. While it could be in a crowded avant-garde discotheque in NYC, a motorik infused warehouse in Berlin, or the pine-needle carpeted redwoods of Big Sur, you will be easily moved by the conviction that Rubies offers. Both huge and intimate moments make the live show feel like dance party and first kiss on a rollercoaster ride.
For our debut album, "Explode from the Center," we were lucky enough to have helping hands from Eirik Glambek-Boe (Kings of Convenience) and his new group "Kommode", Leslie Feist, Karl-Jonas Winqvist (Blood Music), Dan Judd (Sorcerer), Lars Skoglund (Laakso, Lykke Li), Maria Eriksson (The Concretes) and a small army of other talented folks from all over the world. Simone and Terri also play in the pop group "Call and Response". Visit Rubies
