Born Ruffians – “Supersonic Man”

Some of us become ruffians through a tragic backstory, some of us are simply Born Ruffians. I’m speaking of course, of the Toronto bred four piece and, unless you skipped the title, you’d know that we’re checking out their latest single “Supersonic Man.” It’s delightfully morose yet… somehow uplifting? Clean acoustic guitars with what sounds like a theremin (or synth, who can say?) somehow combine together for a Bob Dylan-esque ramble that will surely tickle your bramble (and ears). But like… if Bob Dylan was Canadian and a modern-day indie band that keeps churning out hits.
You can watch the music/lyric video below from YouTube (I won’t spoil it but it’s two legs on a bike). I am surprisingly atrocious with picking out lyrics 98% of the time, so seeing them in a visualizer is always incredibly helpful to help me connect more closely with music. It’s also available on Spotify (sans lyrics), but you can pre-save their new album “Beauty’s Pride,” due out this June 6th!
