Lineup and details for Ruby & The Vines + Bumi Thomas on Wednesday 8th February 2012
Fronted by vocalist/bassist Binisa Bonner, RATV fuse influences as diverse as Jazz, Rock, Afro-beat and Reggae. The line-up is completed by guitarist Greg Sanders and drummer Ben Assiter, who complement Binisa's soulful, frank vocal delivery and deftly melodic bass lines with a meticulous groove. They released their debut EP 'Red Storm' in June 2011, achieving national airplay on BBC Radio by Gilles Peterson, Don Letts and Tom Robinson and were hotly tipped by Max Reinhardt (BBC) as a ''wild, hot and about to happen new trio".
BUMI is a dynamic contemporary African, acoustic Jazz-Folk-Soul singer-songwriter whose style is inspired by her multicultural heritage. Her music explores identity, sensuality, spirituality, retrospective and cross-culturism. In 2011 Bumi received the Womatt Best of British (BOB) Award for Best Solo Newcomer 2011 and was nominated for two BEFFTA awards "Best Female Act" and "Best Female Uk Based Afro-Caribbean Act". Both powerful ladies, both playing with full band, and both ready to blow your music-seeking mind.
