- Bio: Ruby Coast consists of five small town friends whose brand of high-energy, sparkling indie-pop has taken them far beyond the confines of their suburban Aurora, ON in a relatively short span of time.
Ruby Coast first picked up their instruments together in late 2006, and has wowed crowds across the continent ever since with their unique formula of contagious pop perfection and boisterous blend of mod-rock and spastic yelps. Since releasing their (now sold out) debut EP, Projectable Collections, produced by Dave Monks of Tokyo Police Club in fall 2008, they've taken their van across plenty of previously unmarked territory (at least unmarked to them). The band toured across Canada and the U.S. with the likes of Passion Pit, Tokyo Police Club, and Ra Ra Riot, as well as shared stages with Canada's finest talent: Stars, Born Ruffians, Plants and Animals, and Islands amongst others.
After hiding away as songwriting machines for much of 2009, Ruby Coast have emerged from the studio in summer 2010 with their highly anticipated debut album, Whatever This Is, in tow, produced by dream-duo Howard Bilerman (Arcade Fire, Wolf Parade) and Brian Paulson (Dinosaur Jr, Slint, Wilco). Ruby Coast will spend the fall of this year previewing material off the full-length and have released the title track off the album, “Whatever This Is” as a digital single backed with another album track, “Creep Me Out”. The band his the U.S. first supporting Jukebox The Ghost, hit the CMJ Music Marathon in New York before returning to Canada for a co-headlining tour with the Meligrove Band. (less)
