Ruby Wood

Description

Hailing from Huddersfield, Ruby Wood has got Marsden Jazz Festival in her DNA, having been visiting and performing at the festival since her early childhood. Ruby’s distinctive and soulful vocal tones have led to global success as the frontwoman of the Submotion Orchestra and to her being an in-demand collaborator for musicians and producers, such as Bonobo, Nubiyan Twist, The Sugar Sisters, Alfa Mist, Linden Jay and Jordan Rakei to name a few.

Ruby is currently working on new solo material and album with Arts Council England support. She is performing with Martin Chung (guitar), Dave Kane (bass) and Joe Luckin (drums) in Marsden. We’re thrilled to be welcoming Ruby back to the stunning acoustics of St Bart’s, where she performed last as part of our Chronotope Project in 2019 (see below)
