straight from the one sheet to you :
ruby lashes began unleashing their peculiar brand of indie-rock on the world in 1999, when Pepe Anzalone (drums) and Mike Fennelly (bass), who had spent much of the past few years playing in various bands that never made it out of the basement, met up with Krissy Lundgren (guitar/vocals). Krissy had been playing around Boston with an embryonic version of ruby lashes, but it wasn’t until Krissy, Mike, and Pepe came together that things began to click for the band.
With three years of playing shows and sharing stages with the likes of Ted Leo, Enon, Brandston, The Operators, and Paula Kelley under their belts, ruby lashes entered the studio in summer 2002 with producer Richard Marr to begin work on their debut full-length album “the space around you”. The album, expected to be released in spring 2003, manages to be simultaneously raw and expansive, polishing and smoothing the songs out from their live versions, while keeping their characteristic energy intact.
Combining such disparate influences as throwing muses and jawbreaker, lush and sunny day real estate, and jack drag and X, ruby lashes are poised to make their mark on the Boston scene and beyond.
