“The new album by Tiny Ruins is ludicrously, chill-makingly, spellbindingly wonderful” – Lauren Laverne, BBC
“I’m in love with (the new album)” – Bob Boilen, NPR
Tiny Ruins are excited to announce a very special show at the Mt Eden historical theatre, Crystal Palace. The theatre holds significance for Tiny Ruins as it is directly above The Lab studios where the new album, Brightly Painted One was recorded.
Band doyen, Hollie Fullbrook, is busily gathering all the musicians and instruments that were used to make the record. “On stage we’ll have a full band including violin, brass and organs. We’re really want to make it a special night and recreate the album with the people that recorded it, pretty much right where it all happened.”
