Hailing from the suburbs of Sydney’s South Coast, singer, songwriter and modern-day storyteller, Ruby Fields, writes catchy indie-rock riffs and lyrics that are so self-aware and relatable that they cut deep. Her sophomore album, Small Achievements, expands on this signature sound with some deeper themes and grittier, guitar-driven production layered with raw, anthemic hooks and moments of stripped-back vulnerability, which she’ll perform live around the country this April and May. Small Achievements at its core represents the last four years of Fields life in the NSW’s Northern Rivers, where she lived through COVID, intense floods, breakups, death, the band falling apart and picking up the pieces again, falling in love and connecting with the environment through the beauty of the local surrounds and community. Following on from singles ‘92 Purebred’, ‘Half the Laugh’ and ‘Tacklebox’, Fields says of the album’s fourth single, “‘Muscle’ is an ode to my life in the Northern Rivers. The role of fear and of love in community and in the natural environment. I also know we have crocodiles in Australia, but you try rhyming crocodiles with indicators."
