For years he played mainly covers, with Pearl Jam and Dave Matthews Band as his most played bands... When Jack Johnson appeared with his very simple but always soundable music, Ruben felt the time had come! With the help of his good friend Joel Barbosa, he went on his own and tried something new: write his own songs!
From that point appeared his first record WAITING ON A SUNNY DAY which walks through lots of different musical genres just like Grunge, Rock, Pop, Blues and Country, showing us Ruben's great versatility and ability, without loosing his high standards.
The heat is on... Stay tuned.
