On the cusp of a new EP release featuring Mac DeMarco, Geneva Jacuzzi, and John McEntire (Tortoise/The Sea and Cake), Spookey Ruben is back in NYC for an exclusive performance at Coney Island Baby.
Iconic pop weirdo / Indie-cult favorite Spookey Ruben blew up the 90s music scene w/ his trailblazing debut on TVT Records (1995) incl. lots of airtime on MTV followed by a row of successes in Japan and Europe. A Canadian musician of many hats — Some may remember him from his early days in the progressive thrash band Transilience OR from his short film ‘The Adventures of Spaghetti Cowboy’ alongside Feist or his collaborations w/ Ariel Pink, Voivod, Porcelain Black — has been cited as an influence by a panoply of indie rock mainstays. Some of them, including Owen Pallett (Arcade Fire), Esthero and Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie) — Now gearing up for a full-length release and US Tour this Fall (2019).
