Green Man Rising 2020 winner, Nuha Ruby Ra, announces her debut EP ‘How To Move’ out on Brace Yourself Records on 5th March 2021. A visceral and striking debut from the East London avant-punk, Nuha delivers frenzied poetic energy across the seven tracks bearing comparisons to Lydia Lunch and Sonic Youth.

Nuha Ruby Ra has spent the last few months cultivating a dedicated following and racking up an impressive catalogue of collaborators from around the world. Nuha has performed alongside the likes of Bo Ningen, Uncanny Valley, Charlie Boyer and more, and appeared on recordings by Flamingods and Warmduscher. In the short time she’s been playing these tracks she’s amassed support slots with Fat White Family, Surfbort, Amyl and the Sniffers, Bambara, Japanese Television.

The EP 'How To Move' began as bedroom projects, before Nuha developed the tracks in the actual vintage synth cave of the Psychedelic Furs, joined by members of Liars and Insecure Men. It was produced by Tony Visconti protégé Erin Tonkin (David Bowie’s ‘Blackstar’) and mastered by Pete Maher (Patti Smith, Lana Del Ray etc.)

The Guardian: "The East London artist channels Ian Dury's prowling allure on this intermittently minimalist and confrontational celebration of sex with without emotional attachment"

Alt Citizen: ‘The song’s made up of heavy textures, like the pizzicato string sounds that are more likely a piano and guitar, the dissonant-vibrate-y-strung-out layering in the bass end, and the moments where she pushes her voice to a growl.’

The Tipping Point: 'Lifted from her forthcoming EP, the song’s bassline is delirious, relentless and completely hypnotic'

Get in Her Ears: 'Erase Me’... is a deftly crafted and deeply emotional performance, a unique mish-mash of old and new, art and fashion.'

DIY: ‘the delicious offering pulls influence from her Egyptian heritage, creating a mysterious and enchanting track that will stay with you long after listening’

London in Stereo: '[Nuha is] earning a reputation for delivering suitably sublime and eerie performances imbued with a raw, otherworldly power'

RADIO: Supported by BBC Introducing and Tom Robinson. ‘Sparky’ premiered as While You We’re Sleeping track on Monday 30th Nov on 6 Music. Amazing Radio takeover in December.
