2010 release from the singer/songwriter. Ruarri"s rather peculiar music career began, in part, when his mother, a practicing witch, relocated her young family from Cornwall to New Zealand, away from his alcoholic father. A childhood was spent living on a farm in the middle of nowhere, where it was common practice to make explosives, drive at fourteen, swim in the ocean and shoot possums. When Ruarri"s family wanted to move to a bigger field, they simply sawed the house in half and took both bits with them.
