(I can't stop loving you) I've made up my mind To live in memory of the lonesome times (I can't stop wanting you) It's useless to say So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday (Dreams of yesterday) Those happy hours that we once knew Tho' long ago, they still make me blue They say that time heals a broken heart But time has stood still since we've been apart Yesterday I posted up a [...]

This Album is about two artists' pursuits of stardom. Ruby Amanfu was born in Ghana but raised in a devoutly Christian home in Nashville, TN from the time she was three years old. In her home exclusively heard and sang Christian and classical music. Her awakening to jazz, blues, folk and rock all started when a friend gave her a Madonna album "Like A Prayer." Don't let her inauspicious introduction to contemporary sound confuse you. Ruby can sing. She is a bright, wispy soprano with natural vibrato. It makes [...]
Sam and Ruby 's "Never Surrender" is a recently remixed version of a track that was available only as an iTunes bonus track for the Nashville duo's '09 debut album The Here and The Now (Rykodisc). Included as part of their new six-track digital EP Press On -- a collection featuring two brand new songs and a handful of stripped acoustic performances -- "Surrender" is a luminous bauble of lush and melodic folk/pop. The harmonies alone make it worth a listen... More Sam and Ruby on DC here . [...]

Nashville's Sam & Ruby released The Here And The Now , this month on Ryko. The duo offer a rather natural offering of acoustic roots and soul with talk of love, life, and finding clarity in both. Ruby was born in Ghana and spent most of her life in Nashville, while Sam learned life in Green Bay, Wisconsin. On The Here And the Now , relative spare arrangements set the frame for these heartfelt presentations, with their voices delivering a combined richness equal to the subject. Listen to "Sarah" from the album. [...]

The Wall Street Journal profiles Jack White, the business mogul. The Quietus examines the right way to remember Joy Division . There are other things we must not forget. We must not forget Peter Hook's basslines, and how they fuelled the menace of Joy Division's music. We must not forget how Joy Division created a new British gothic – a term that should be rehabilitated rather than reviled – by sweeping the Northern spirit of [...]

Nashville-based duo Sam & Ruby (Sam Brooker and Ruby Amanfu) share a special, if somewhat unlikely, chemistry that permeates their folk-based pop with a warm, knowing and soulful intimacy. Sam, from Green Bay, Wisconsin, and Ruby, born in Ghana, West Africa, would seem worlds apart but it's their glorious harmonies and quietly dramatic live presence that has given the duo, now settled in Nashville, a special kismet. A well-received EP and some much-buzzed live shows paved the way for a label deal via Rykodisc and their full-length debut The Here and The [...]
