Live in bahrain
My favorite band from saudi arabia they play
almost everything from blues to grunge to
noise to wired stuff.
The idea started back in 1996. Mohammed
Al-Hajjaj met Nasser (frog) who is mostly
listening to the same stuff that Hajjaj
listens to. They decided to form grunge band
that sounds close to Seattle sound bands and
the main theme is about freaks and weird
stuff. The band started to compose songs but
without bass and that was a problem. First
show ever of Sound of Ruby was in 1998 in a
party of the Indian community center in Saudi
Arabia and after that year the band started
to play in special parties and gigs. In 1999
the band played in the Gulf hotel in Bahrain.
As the band was progressing there was always
the bass problem. Unfortunately, many
bassists joined the band but they didn't
last. The band showed up in a dead rock
community. Rock music is not that popular in
Saudi Arabia so they were kind of alone.
According to these circumstances the band
decided to go out of the country to be heard
and to get some opinions about the songs. In
2002 after the rise of rock music in Saudi
Arabia the band got to know another local
band called Wry Wreathe and their drummer was
the childhood friend of Hajjaj and was one of
the many bassists who left the band. The 2
bands could make gigs and jams coz the line
ups of the 2 bands were complete. We had W.
Al-Suwaimel as a bassist during that time he
left the band and make his own band
Inversion. In march, 2003 Hajjaj and K.
Khalil who was the rhythm guitarist with Wry
Wreathe thought of making a big gig and they
called it Dammam Fest. From that day Hajjaj
and K. Khalil became close friends with
Nasser (frog). In the same year Wry Wreathe
broke up so the band asked K. Khalil to be
the bass player of the band. They understood
each other well and started composing more
stuff. With K. Khalil the band recorded a
B-side album called (Stoned Super Acoustic)
contained 6 songs recorded by K. Khalil and
that was an experience before recording in
the studio.
