Laura Marling Producer “RUEN” Shares New Single

RUEN is the artistic project of producer-songwriter Rhiannon Mair. Rhiannon has spent her working life as a producer songwriter for some of the U.K’s strongest new indie talent. Working with the likes of Laura Marling, Bryde, Emma McGrath, DIDI and Kimberly Anne, has cemented her as a tour de force of production & engineering in the U.K. Working from her home studio in Margate, RUEN has managed to thrive as an LGBTQ+ artist & creator, in an industry as male dominated as music production & engineering.

Now focusing on her own project, RUEN is now launching her second single “What I Need”. First single “Bad Behaviour” was an emphatic & emotive statement of intent, for a gritty and immensely talented musician. “What I Need” is a similarly sultry, indie-rock anthem with an excess of attitude. Lyrically, the track explores lust & passion with an irresistible, raw production that’s bound to appeal to your devilish side.

“The song is about the pushing and pulling of power plays that can happen in relationships along with feeling powerless and wanting someone you know is bad for you. It’s also a little bit sexual – which was fun to write. It felt quite empowering as a woman to write something that expressed female sexual energy.” – RUEN
