Ruarri Joseph <RuarriJoseph>

official band profile

I've been playing in all sorts of different bands since I was about 14 but took a different route a few years ago and went solo. Through relentless playing I got signed to Atlantic Records a couple of years ago and put an album out called Tales of Grime and Grit. After a year with the major it felt like I was on the wrong path (and so did they!) so I left and made a new record called BOTH SIDES OF THE COIN and I'm looking to try and put it out under my own label PIP PRODUCTIONS.

Music is really important to me, but so is living and I wouldn't let the former compromise the latter and that's what it felt like was happening with Atlantic. Though I had a great time and got to play with some great people, I reckon I've made the right decision to do it this way for now. Either it'll work or it won't, so long as I'm happy I don't mind.

So I guess have a listen and make up your own minds...?

  • APRIL TOUR ANNOUNCED

    Hey everyone
    I'm stoked to be able to announce that myself and the band are going to be doing a bigger mini tour in the month of april. The first tour was such a success and we enjoyed it so much that we're properly excited now to be able to get ourselves further afield and carry on this nuts adventure. Tour dates are on my profile, so if you're in the area, it'd be cool to see you there.
    The van will be over heating, the stench of armpits will be blinding, the cheap pasta will be bile inducing but you just need to know that the shows will be extra special because of it!
    The reason it's possible for us to do this is because the support has been so fantastic. We're all in this together now!!
    Roll on April!

  • THE END BUT ACTUALLY JUST THE START!

    Well, the mini tour is over, and we're (the band and I) in agreement that it went too quickly! I couldn't have asked for it to go any better really. I was genuinely over the moon with the turn outs for all of the dates and as usual, had a great time meeting new fans and friends that are hopefully with us now til the bitter end. The adventure is picking up momentum now, so hang on everyone!

    Huge thanks need to go out to everyone who helped promote, get from a to b, lugg gear and so on, we couldn't have done it without you. I'm in the process of gathering photos and footage from the dates to put together for all who wish to see it and we'll be back on the road before you know it, malnurished but ultimately having a blast!

    See you then
    Ruarri x

  • EXTRA SHOW AND MORE EXCITING NEWS

    Hi everyone,
    Thanks again to all those who listened in to the Dermot O'Leary show. The feedback has been great and it was a fantastic way to kick off 2009.

    More exciting radio news is the confirmation of a session with Janice Long on the 26th February. It' a late one (between midnight and 1:00am) so get the coffee brewing if you're gonna tune in.

    Also, thanks to the success of the Betsy Trotwood gig just before Christmas, I've been able to add a London date to the mini tour that me and the band are doing at the beginning of February. It's at The Fly on New Oxford Street on the 9th February. Tickets here:

    http://www.curiousgeneration.com/eve... or via wegottickets.com

    See you there (if you go of course!)
    Ruarri x

    hello there..

    Hope your tour is going well. Came to see you in Bridport on Wed, I was the one who no doubt embarrassed you by taking a photo (a lass on each side?!)

    The new album is great by the way, havent stopped playing it - such a "feel good" album. Anyway, say hi to Chris...

    see you soon (hopefully)

    hugs, nat x
