ABOUT

Now celebrating twenty years as Ireland’s leading independent record and management company, Rubyworks has enjoyed unparalleled levels of success both at home and overseas.

With international success stories like iconic singer-songwriter Hozier, Grammy-winners Rodrigo y Gabriela, Hudson Taylor and LYRA, Rubyworks continues to develop talent on the principles originally identified by founder Niall Muckian. Charismatic artists performing unforgettable songs with the ability to thrill concert audiences from Dublin to Denver and beyond.

Over the course of the last two decades, Rubyworks has released albums by many important Irish artists, including Hothouse Flowers, Sinead O’Connor, Mary Coughlan, Gavin Friday and Moving Hearts. 

In more recent times the label helped develop a rich and rewarding era of Irish talent including Irish Women In Harmony, Ryan Sheridan, Wyvern Lingo, David Keenan, Eve Belle and Little Hours. 

Post-pandemic, the nurturing and investment in the next generation with artists like LYRA, Jamie Duffy, Saibh Skelly, Bailey333 and Michael J. Benjamin means the future looks bright. 

In 2019 Hozier’s second album ‘Wasteland, Baby!’ debuted at number one on the US Billboard album chart. Rodrigo y Gabriela’s tenure with Rubyworks has generated over 2 million albums sold worldwide. These global success stories are a reflection of the graft, determination and diligence of label founder and CEO Niall Muckian, Head of A&R and Label Manager Sara Meneghini and the multimedia skills of Anna Sherlock.

We are thrilled to be working with our roster of gifted bands and solo artists at an exciting and vibrant time for the music business. From the vinyl revival to the streaming explosion and forward to the challenges and opportunities offered by Web3, our love for music has remained undimmed and the thrill of working with talented artists is more rewarding than ever.
