About The Ruby Sea
Germany based The Ruby Sea were formed in January 2002 and named after an album made by the American band Thin White Rope. Their music is of the traditional and "new" Americana style, a mixture of Rock, Country, Blues and Folk. One of the largest influences is idyllic Americana culture, musicians such as Ryan Adams (Whiskeytown) or Mark Olson (Jayhawks, Creekdippers), whom with their art, present an opposing view to that of the imperialistic America of G.W. Bush. Music aside, writers like Steinbeck, or modern authors like Douglas Coupland and T.C. Boyle have made a lasting impression. These musicians and authors succeed in the telling of people that are both normal on one end and often bizarre or absurd on the other. Another big influence is the traditional songwriting of wandering folk-musicians like Cisco Houston and Woody Guthrie (a contemporary example would be bands like Wilco), who during their respective eras, were critical of politics in their lyrics and brought about changes in mainstream society with their music. Some of The Ruby Sea’s songs are composed like a theatrical journey through the mind, a musical pendant to movies like »Paris, Texas« by Wim Wenders or books like »Tortilla Flat« by John Steinbeck.
