The Ruby Suns are signed to Lil' Chief Records in New Zealand and Memphis Industries in Britain. In early 2007 the band embarked on their first European tour in support of their self-titled debut album, and in addition to that they did a Take-Away Show video session shot by Vincent Moon. In the latter half of 2007, the band toured with The Shins extensively throughout Australia.
As of 2007, The Ruby Suns are signed to American record label Sub Pop. The band released their second album, Sea Lion, in January 2008. Later that year, the band recorded the song "Don't Touch the Dusty Fruit" to the Survival International charity album, Songs for Survival, and the song "Oh, Mojave" was used in the Windows Vista commercial for the Mojave Experiment.
In August 2008 The Ruby Suns contributed their track "There Are Birds" to an indie compilation album Indiecater Vol. 2.
The Ruby Suns is the first full-length album released by the New Zealand based band The Ruby Suns. The band was originally called Ryan McPhun & The Ruby Suns and the album was released with this title in New Zealand on Lil' Chief Records. The album has subsequently been released in the UK on Memphis Industries in 2006 and in Australia on Popfrenzy in 2007 with different art, and the title truncated to reflect the band's new name. The 2007 Australian release of the album contains two bonus tracks, both of which are from a self-pressed single by the band in 2007.
The Ruby Suns - Morning Sun (WITH LYRICS IN DESCRIPTION)
Song: Morning Sun
Artist: The Ruby Suns (also known as Ryan McPhun and the Ruby Suns)
Album: Sea Lion (2008)
The album 'Sea Lion' by The Ruby Suns is a very interesting adventure. Each song seems to have an airy, strange atmosphere to it, as if you were on a trip to the unknown. This is the last track of the album, which concludes the adventure with a hypnotizing chant throughout the first half of the song, and ends with a Depeche Mode or New Order-like sound that starts from 03:41 and goes on.
LYRICS:
When I wake up, I get the morning sun
When I wake up, I get the morning sun

(Going down with the moonlight)

Laughing everytime you told us.
It was telling: I just wore what your pro rent.
Starting in 1983 ain't so wrong.
I need the advice only you can give,
Say that you're coming back.
I need someone like you to tell
Me what to do with myself.
Twenty something years isn'(t) awful enough
To know what's going on.
