After spending the last few years establishing herself as a warm and woozy name on the rise, American singer-songwriter Ruby Dice has now delivered her eagerly-awaited debut album 'Not In Love'.
Showcased by the new lead single 'Move On Cowboy', this new ten-track collection makes for a brilliantly bold and emotive listen. Channelling more of that riveting country-inspired aesthetic she is known for, 'Not In Love' cements her as a true innovator on the scene today.
So with the new full-length available to stream now, we sat down with her to find out more about her origins and influences over the years.

What was the first band or artist you fell in love with?
Norah Jones was my first artist that I played on repeat non stop.

Yes! Several actually. I grew up playing in my family’s band. And I had a rock and roll band at 19 called sunny side upside down. We were a power trio inspired by Cream. I also played bass for a lot of the bands and songwriters in my hometown of Gunnison, CO.

I tend to write about my life and my personal experiences.
What is a song you wish you had written yourself?
If we were Vampires by Jason Isbell.

Getting to sing backup vocals on stage with Brain Wilson on one of his Pet Sounds tours was pretty neat.
