ruby gill - some kind of control

If anyone can silence a room, it’s Joburg-born, Naarm-based musician Ruby Gill, whose arresting lyricism, honesty and deadpan wit have already garnered millions of streams, awards and radio play from triple j, to BBC and KCRW. Ruby’s “melancholic lyrical wizardry” has earned her the reputation of unmissable, with her Australian Music Prize-nominated debut record ‘I’m gonna die with this frown on my face’ landing at #5 on the AIR Independent Album charts and met with Sunday Times’ coveted “Breaking Act” accolade and worldwide acclaim in September 2022. Her long-awaited sophomore ‘Some Kind Of Control’ is out Mar 28 2025, already flagged by the likes of Triple J, BBC6Music and Rolling Stone as some of Australia’s best new music.
