- The Official Ruffus Bebo Page. Ruffus Formed in early 2000 from the ashes of a duo called Shade 20, described by Jackie Hayden (Hot Press) as "having a natural ability to craft songs that bridge the gap between cred and commercial, with a heavy bias towards the American market" While the lads have been writing and recording their own material they also have been up and down the country as a gigging Cover band. They have a full, well rehearsed, Tight 2 hour set with a mix of material to suit all ages with great attention to detail in every song. Check out our website www.ruffus.net to hear some live recordings of some of our popular cover songs. Having tested their sound in some of Irelands best venues, the lads are ready to get into more venue’s around the country, so that their sound may be heard. After a series of showcase gigs at the MIDEM Festival in Cannes, France. The Lads signed a small Publishing Deal for some of their original material, with New York Based Cherry Lane Music.
