Alt. country/ Americana singer/ songwriter Ruby Boots has a number of headline shows, festival dates and support with Mama Kin upcoming.
A child of the 1980s, Ruby wanders down memory lane looking back at he favourite board games.
“Aside from ‘Mario Brothers’ when Nintendo first came out, and ‘California Games’ before that when we were still playing Atari, I've not been into video games of any sort. But I have the fondest memories of board games from growing up.”
