Enigmatic singer-songwriter of indie-quintet, Hey Big Aki, emerges with his solo project, Slow Ships. Praised for his previous band's "extraordinary pop-sensibilities" (Justin Lam, Indie Shuffle), Rubi forges a new path that takes a "quietly mesmerizing, gently subversive" turn (Jim Flannagan, Lazy Thinking Records).
From nocturnal odes to lilting hymns, Slow Ships draws on themes from the natural world, memory, creatures and places, both literal and allegorical, ultimately weaving domestic narratives of love, self and the world beyond.
