Rubine [Ru:bin] is a New Zealand rock band based in Hamilton and Tauranga. Their music is best described as classic rock and pop-rock with an edge, flavoured with memorable melodies and spiced with a bit of difference . All band members were born overseas (Slovakia, Germany, England, Sri Lanka). They made New Zealand their home and united their different influences to form the truly multicultiral rock band Rubine in 2016.
Rubine consists of Tana Tapri (lead vocals) Afzer Zameer (drums) Keith McGlade (bass, backing vocals), and Stefan Doll (guitar, backing vocals). Each member is looking back on years of successfully making music in New Zealand and Europe.
“We’ve written so many great songs that it was a challenge to decide which one we’d like to take to the stage. We ended up adding at least one new song to every gig.“ says Stefan Doll. “Over the last year we consolidated our performance and concentrated on recording Rubine’s debut album called Secret Danger.” which is now available online.
Tana Tapri is an award winning, well established vocalist in her own right who has already released six solo albums. Tana captures the audience with her raspy rock voice and unique vocal interpretations.
Rubine achieved a fantastic audience response and has been described as “… a tight rock band with great original songs. Any music lover should check them out.”
