Rue Royale[1] is an Anglo-American indie folk band based in Nottingham, England. The band was formed in Chicago by the married couple Brookln and Ruth Dekker in 2006.[2][3] "We play hypnotic indie-folk-pop influenced by American and British folk, soul and rock." says Brookln.[4]

Initially based in Chicago, the band's first release The Search for Where to Go EP was self-released in January 2007.[5] "Once we decided to start a band, we hit it running. We decided the next day (literally) to write and record a 5 song ep in 6 weeks time."[3] After a year of playing the Chicago circuit, Rue Royale recorded their self-titled full length Rue Royale and took it on their first European tour from 1 March – 30 April 2008. The tour consisted of 31 concerts in six countries including: United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands and Germany.[6]

After the band's premier European tour, they decided to uproot their homestead in Chicago and relocate to the UK in order to tour Europe full-time.[7]

In 2010, the band recorded their Wapping Press Session EP with producer Paul Pilot.[8]

2011 saw the self-recorded and released second album Guide to an Escape. Again the band enlisted the help of Paul Pilot in mixing the album.[9] In March 2012, Sinnbus re-released Guide to an Escape in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Then following the release in March Sinnbus went on to extend the release to France and Italy in August.[10]

Rue Royale released their third full-length album Remedies Ahead in September 2013.[11] Mercedes Benz featured the first single "Set Out To Discover" and called it "tender yet sprawling folk pop".[12]

The band is also known for their handmade CD packaging and bespoke merchandise.[13][14]
