After pressing pause on live performances a few years ago, musician Rob Ruha is ready to share new music with the world again. Following the career-high of opening for Phil Collins at his rain-soaked Hastings' show in 2019, Ruha (Te Whanau-a-Apanui, Ngāti Porou) decided he needed to take a break from the stage and restoke his creative energy.
Now Ruha has released his highly-anticipated third album Preservation of Scenery, the title a play on words that originate from the Scenery Preservation Act 1903.
The album isn’t the only thing keeping Ruha busy, he and wife Cilla have been announced as the musical directors for the 2021 APRA Silver Scroll Awards taking place next month.
Ruha joins the show from the East Cape to play a few favourite tunes.
