Everyone loves to say they were a fan of ‘insert artist name here’ before they were famous, right? Well, if that’s the case then ‘Heard it Hear First’, terrible pun aside, is your go to destination to discover your new favourite act and keep up to date with the latest and most exciting emerging artists currently on the scene.
Today you can say you heard ‘that’s on you’ by Ruby Joyce!
Ruby Joyce brings to modern youth culture a new digestible take on dreampop and shoegaze. Inspired by the likes of The Smiths, The Sundays and Holly Humberstone, Ruby normalises the vulnerabilities of insecurity, body-image, and the helplessness found in observing her closest friends’ mental health. Backed by a band of highly accomplished musicians, Ruby’s live performance captivates with “spellbinding vocals” and “sultry, emotional records with an unwavering intrigue”. Featured on The Voice UK, shortlisted for Truck Festival 2022, supported Eva Lazarus at YES Manchester on the Brandy Kisses tour, “it seems clear that Ruby Joyce is a name that will become familiar to many” (Oculate UK).
