Biography:
Megan James and Corin Roddick formed Purity Ring in 2010. They both grew up in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. James played piano and Roddick played drums prior to the band's inception, but neither play them as a primary instrument for Purity Ring. During live shows, Roddick uses a custom built, tree-shaped instrument to drive both live sound and lighting. Additionally, during live appearances both wear clothes custom designed and sewn by James.
The duo were originally two of several members of the band of GOBBLE GOBBLE (now Born Gold).

“I’m not pouring my heart out in a desperate plea to be heard and understood. It is just my thoughts and
experiences as source material,” Megan, Purity Ring
“Working the way we do isn’t always conducive to being prolific, and we’re kind of perfectionists.”
Corin, Purity Ring

Fluent sea men rig their rudders so they'll

Graze it with their wind arrows

Oh my dreams come back to me, back to me, back to...

Oh my wrinkles build on me, build on me, build on...
