Rhubarb is one of the pseudonyms used by eclectic Edinburgh musician Richard Haswell
who has self-released 20 albums to date and slowly built up a cult following.
Last year saw the release of An Introduction to Rhubarb Cd which has slowly become
an internet phenomenon through word of mouth.

But the Julius Work Calendar sounds like the masterpiece we have been waiting for
him to make. Epic yet intimate, bruised and haunting, every track is extraordinarily
strong and features a host of local musicians .

Perhaps 2008 will be his year..

Some of the comments gathered so far:

"..the popular music press must have missed out on this musical treasure . there is
the beauty of fragility broken in these songs.. a distinctive talent who should have
broken through to wider acclaim."
Woven Wheat Whispers
\"..soft melodies and pithy, world weary lyrics contrasting brilliantly ... the songs
sparkle with electricity... recommended as the perfect doorway into a weird and
wonderful universe you may recognise as your own. \"
Terrascope Online

\"..a cut above many self-made rock stars. moments of moving lyrical poetry. a
surprising strength of vision.\"
Is This Music
\"..this song Perfect Parallel has more soul than i have heard in a long time...
feeling and emotion flow as each note is played, the lyrics and sound of the vocals
are as perfect as the sunrise everyday. Its a sad day that this artist remains
undiscovered.\"
Slice the Pie
\"..a fantastic prospect ... beautifully layered guitar playing and voice .\"
Fact Magazine

\"... a wonderful, eccentric and heavenly melody maker ...a breath of fresh air with
a twist of leftfield beauty..\"
Matchbox Records
\"... It\'s odd but draws you in, especially beats driven tracks like Red Sky, Forest
Fear (Live) and Solid Ground which sound like The Wall-era Pink Floyd in their
hypnotic qualities. \"

Daily Record
\"a collection of especially excellent songs...The charm and quality of Rhubarb\'s
songwriting and instrumental / arranging abilities shine through...cleverly
assembled...a fantastic offering.\"
