About Me

F ormed in August of 2005, we're a 3-piece Alternative Rock band bringing together all our musical influences in The Ruze. We like to make exciting music that people can enjoy, and we put a lot of effort and commitment into our live performances. Our gig experience includes playing at The Boardwalk and the HUBs in Sheffield. We've also played several gigs at Beauchief Tennis Club, and The Woodseats Festival 2007. Most recently, we organised our own gig, !Carnival!, in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust & St. Luke's Hospice.
'Sunset Hopes & Sunrise Dreams' and 'Look Again, Honey' produced by Ainsley Stones .
'Prone' self-recorded :]
