Lake Ruth is a New York-based indie outfit known for crafting baroque pop gems dipped in psychedelic folk sprinkles. Formed around the core trio of Allison Brice (vocals/bass), Steve Hassett (guitar/organ), and Hewson Chen (drums/melodica), the band marries vintage analog warmth with literary lyricism across releases like "Hawking Radiation" and "Crying Everyone Else's Tears." Their sound – a cozy collision of 1960s French pop, library music quirks, and Gothic Americana textures – often features Brice's crystalline vocals floating above Wurlitzer drones and surrealist storytelling inspired by everything from cosmic physics to forgotten historical figures. Having shared stages with artists like The Clientele and collaborated with indie icons including Gary Olson (The Ladybug Transistor), Lake Ruth continues to charm listeners with their unapologetically bookish approach to dream-pop craftsmanship.
