Van Ruin: Andy Newman, Big Al Creed, Stui Wilson and Phil Van Rooyen.
Van Ruin - the high-energy Sydney outfit whose pedigree includes past and current membership of the New Christs, Lime Spiders, The Visitors, East Coast Low, Panadolls, Aberration, Chickenstones, Chris Masual’s Dog Soldier and Deniz Tek Group - are embarking on a French tour in September.
What’s more, it will be on the back of a debut full-length album, “Trauma Magnet”, on Aussie label Crankinhaus Records.
Following on the heels of the “Jails, Death and Institutions” EP, it’s said to be a marked step up. The band has been gigging sporadically around Sydney to hone the material and warm up for overseas.
