About Ruts DC

Ruts DC were formed in 1981 by the rhythm section and guitarist of The Ruts.

The Ruts had three years of success and critical acclaim, with singles including Babylons Burning, Jah War, Something That I Said and Staring At The Rude Boys, and albums The Crack, Grin And Bear It and Animal Now.

John Peel at Radio 1 strongly supported the debut single In A Rut, released on People Unite by reggae band Misty In Roots, as they shared the common fight against racism and the National Front.

The band were later invited to play live for Peel, and their 1979 Peel Sessions set was released as a 12-inch in 1986.

Ruts DC continue to tour extensively and record.

Their 2016 album Music Must Destroy was voted Album of the Year by Vive Le Rock magazine.
