🌺Rubita @ BAR OUSSOU! 🌺 Rubita blends soulful melodies with the smooth tones of the electric guitar and a vibrant rhythm section heavily influenced by Latin American music.
Rubita is the project of electric guitarist and vocalist Rachel Kibblewhite, formed after she graduated as the first woman with a degree in the electric guitar from the University of Otago (New Zealand). Her song writing takes inspirations from jazz classics such as Ella Fitzgerald but with a modern, Sharon Van Etten flavour. The band have played at major New Zealand festivals such as Splore, CubaDupa and Newtown Festival, and her single ‘Geraldine’ was voted as a favourite song for 2022 by Flying Nun Records. Rubita’s current band arrangement includes seasoned bassist Henry Smithers, and Cuban studied percussionist Christian Silva. ‘Powerful, energetic and intoxicatingly dynamic, Rubita’s Distinctive Thrill is like a musical degustation that hits all the right notes.’ – beat magazine
