After a day spent exploring the beauty of the South West, there’s nothing quite like returning to the comfort of The River Hotel🍷

Settle in, order yourself a drink from the bar and take a moment to reminisce about the day’s adventures. Because the best part of exploring is having somewhere special to come back to🤗🛎️

❗GIG REMINDER❗RUBYHOO
WHO'S RUBY? - AUS TOUR
Following the release and tour of their debut EP, Before It Was Now, which has up to over 1 million streams, Perth two-piece RubyHoo hit the road for the Who’s Ruby? Aus Tour – 8 shows across 5 states this September and October.

Formed at university, Matt Preston and Brodie Cook’s friendship began in the most unlikely of places: the uni cafeteria, over a lasagna Matt bought Brodie one afternoon. What started as a shared meal turned into a shared obsession with songwriting, and the pair have been writing together ever since.

The duo relocated to Melbourne to chase the music, honing their sound and building a catalogue before making the move back home to Perth – bringing their story full circle as they prepare to tour the country they grew up in.

Now, with more releases out in the world and a growing fanbase behind them, RubyHoo are ready to bring their songs to stages across Australia.
Best mates, bandmates, and proof that a good lasagna can change your life – don’t miss RubyHoo live! 🔥
