Description
Ruby was the collaboration of singer Lesley Rankine and Mark Walk.
Rankine relocated from London to Seattle to collaborate with the
producer in 1994. Their music styles expanded across the genres of
electronic, trip hop, noise, industrial, even Jazz, among others. The
band released two studio albums and three remix albums from 1995 through
2001, and singles into 2002. The name for this group came about because
Rankine and Walk both have maternal grandmothers named "Ruby".
