RUXA is a multifaceted artist hailing from the enigmatic land of Romania. A skilled singer-songwriter, actress, and model, she seamlessly transitions between these creative realms. After completing her studies, RUXA relocated to London and has since established herself as an independent musician while continuing to pursue her passions in modeling and acting.
"I am always trying to tell a story—and it is the only one I can tell. Mine. Whether I am writing a song, working on a character, or modeling, I never feel better than in those moments when I am able to unshield myself and tap into my emotions and visions. I've learned (the hard way) that vulnerability requires courage, and sometimes you are just forced into it. There is no better preparation than that ‘fuck it,’ but right before going for it. That's the place I am striving to be." — RUXA
As we approach the end of 2024, RUXA concludes the year with an extraordinary song and video, "Campfire," that takes listeners on an enchanting journey. Much like RUXA herself, the song is shrouded in mystery. It begins with a gentle, soothing rhythm, quickly giving way to RUXA's beautiful vocals. The chorus is a crescendo of melody and emotion, elevating her lyrics to new heights. The lyrics paint a bittersweet picture of love and longing.
Vulnerability is at the heart of RUXA's music, forging a deep connection with her audience. By sharing her raw emotions and personal experiences, she invites anyone who listens to explore their own feelings and stories. This authenticity not only enriches her art but also fosters a profound sense of empathy and understanding among her listeners.
"‘Campfire’ took its sweet time with me. It's the most personal song I've written so far, and it needed space to settle. It tells the story of a romance that stands outside time and public gaze. It is clandestine, sacred, and wild, but fragile. It is the fire you light on a cold night when suddenly everything becomes possible. It came at a time when I was taking a new chance on love, and that story changed me in ways I couldn't have imagined." — RUXA
The music video itself is a cinematic experience that perfectly complements the song's narrative. RUXA showcases her acting prowess, delivering a powerful performance. Overall, the video beautifully encapsulates both the song's story and RUXA's artistic versatility.
"Campfire" is a truly remarkable song. RUXA has poured her heart and soul into this masterpiece. As we eagerly await 2025, we can't help but wonder what surprises she has in store for us.
