Born Ruffians

 

Canada. Maple Syrup. Mounties. Funny French accents. Tim Horton’s.  Awesome music.

Case in point: Born Ruffians. Three cute indie boys from small town Ontario form a band, move to Toronto, head to Texas, take on South by Southwest (rather successfully), tour extensively through Europe and North America before catching a twenty-six hour flight south of the equator.

I could write some witty little description, but I’ll leave it to Luke, Mitch and Steve, who undoubtedly do a much better job than I ever would.

We are the next link in the evolutionary chain of contemporary pop music, mixing drums, bass, and electric guitar, an almost unheard of combination, with bits of harmonium, piano and plenty of “hootin and hollerin” to create a sound we call “the best we could come up with!”

Catch these cute indie boys playing their catchy, witty pop songs this Thursday 5th February at the OAF. Tickets available from Moshtix.
