About Me

The Delirium Ride is the musical project of Sarah Rubin, a holistic health practitioner with an altogether confusing life story. In one aspect The Delirium Ride creates its signature sound by combining swirls of psychedelic screams with the pure folksy sounds reminiscent of the 60's. On the other side are the deep groans and growls of a more tempermental, dysphoric alternative rock. Since its induction in 2006, The Delirium Ride has had the effect of either captivating or otherwise confusing, and occasionally infuriating its audiences, as all art is known to do.
Sarah envisions her project as a tree, with branches representing each sonic turn. "My roots are my singing voice," she says.
*The Delirium Ride has been featured on KDVC internet radio, the first internet radio station of its kind, started by a junior college in 2006: please click:
