Ruby Larks
(Artist management)
"Next on were The Ruby Larks, Em Whitfield Brooks
and the mysterious B. Truly, by any criteria -
local, national or international - one of the most
interesting vocal units around. Em and B sang a fascinating
selection of original material. Their musical palette ranged
from stark, precision acapella through thrumming Deep Blue
with guitar and minimalist violin, a la Philip Glass,
via Crazy Lady with its tango heart and added bass,
to a stunning finale Bless, oozing a rock 'n' roll
soul and breathtaking vocal gymnastics."
There is no one else quite like them! Em and B are
in the studio later this year, recording new material
for release on Scarlet Records in 2010.
Watch this space for news on their website and the album.

He's been on a gap year working on projects in Africa and has just completed his first year doing Law University in Durham September. During which time he performed in no less than 10 (!!!!!!!) DULOG productions and is performing at the Edinburgh Festival in 2010.
We are currently putting together and trying out material for him, sourced from writers around the world, as we already have firm interest from record labels - based on the strength of a very early demo. This is a long term development project with fantastic commercial potential.
