John Paul Young...Keyboards, Vocals
Micheal Broadus...Drums
The Saints Of Ruin were formed in early 2007 by Tommy Dark and Ruby Ruin. Tommy left Voltaire’s band The Oddz, and New York City, and headed to San Francisco so he could play with the extremely talented Ruby Ruin. The duo spent time writing together before looking for the rest of the band. When they felt ready, they found Keyboardist/Vocalist John Paul Young. John brings the Industrial element and haunting harmonies to this Gothic Rock band. Finally and most importantly, they found the drummer that would deliver perfect timing along with pounding rhythms and dynamic showmanship… Michael Broadus became the 4th Saint.
The Saints Of Ruin, although a new band in the Goth scene, have already picked up a loyal following through MySpace and only a few shows.
Very catchy songs, Very talented musicians, and Very sexy looks.
Here’s what the press are saying :
