It is with huge joy and enthusiasm that I share this first announcement of my 2025 tour. It’s a joint tour featuring the music of both the Toby Driver songbook and Alora Crucible, supporting my two recent albums „Raven, I Know That You Can Give Me Anything,“ and „Oak Lace Apparition.“ We’re even visiting a couple countries for the first time EVER, namely Greece and Iceland. I seriously couldn’t be more excited about those! This absolutely killer band features myself, Timba Harris @timbasphere , Ana Cristina Pérez @crsntm , and Sam Gutterman @sam.the.luftmensch. At some of the shows we’ll be supported by my dear friend Nick Hudson @the_academy_of_sun.
Christina Ruf: Electric Cello, Electronics
Christina Ruf works in tonal and formative dimensions on and through her instrument, that only on reflection suggest classical playing. Rather, through her use of a 6-string electric cello, various effect pedals and electronics to influence, manipulate and expand the form and sound, she manipulates and extends, giving it a unique expression. Often constructing expansive, dark soundscapes, she manages with her work, to create an authentic wealth of ideas, that not only deliver a performance, but move you.
