   About The Rubikons

Rubikon: “A limit that when passed or exceeded permits of no return and typically results in irrevocable commitment.”

You could say that The Rubikons epitomize this meaning. In 2006 the band dropped everything they had and hit the road playing more than fifty shows in three months around the UK. As well as seeing increasing crowds, the band started to gain increasing interest and at the beginning of 2007 entered the studio with Gavin Monoghan (The Twang, Editors, Bloc Party & Kings of Leon).

After an acclaimed response from these early demos, 2007 has seen the band focus on writing and perfecting their live performance. Now with over two albums worth of songs and an electric live show, 2008 promises to be a whirl-wind of a year!
