Their debut single, Slow Down Jessica, released in 2009, featured notable B-sides and earned recognition as a BBC Radio 1 Demo of the Week, with coverage linked to Steve Lamacq. The Old Isleworth EP, released on SiZe Records UK, exists in two editions (2010 and 2012), the latter offering more tracks for fans and collectors. In the live circuit around 2009–2010, The Ruskins performed across London venues such as Koko and Camden Barfly, delivering energetic sets that drew from their early catalog.
