Ruby Goon Brand New Power Vinyl

Ruby Goon emerged from a previously bustling underground of live music in Moscow, formed and led by Ivan Solimani-Leznhev, a strikingly independent and self-determined young singer-songwriter. Colourful and vulnerable, the music of Ruby Goon soulfully blends early psychedelia, glam and indie rock. ‘Brand New Power’, the debut album from Ruby Goon, collects these early works into an impressive volume that documents a body of warm-hearted, mature song writing blessed with the sort of youthful energy that’s difficult to recapture and impossible to resist. Even with this level of passion in play, it might still surprise to hear that ‘Globe’, the luxuriously smooth opening to ‘Brand New Power’ was only the second track Solimani-Leznhev recorded after purchasing his first guitar.

“Being a sound engineer and producer has been my hobby since I was a teenager, and I started writing music when I was eleven-years old”, explains Solimani-Leznhev, prolific since an exceptionally young age. “Ruby Goon represents something different than what I had been doing before; spacier, calmer and with much more melody.”
