Ruby’s musical journey began in her birth place of Roxbury, MA., an area rich in music history with the likes of New Edition and Hip Hop Legend Edo G. Witnessing local acts make it to the national stage inspired her to dream of a music career of her own. 

​

Her influences include many of the the R&B and Motown greats. As a young girl she loved to sit in her room and play her parents vinyl collection of Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder on her Fisher Price record player. Her teenage years then brought influences from Sade, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston which shaped her love for pop music and R&B. Listening to these artists also encouraged her to try her hand in songwriting. 

​

It wasn’t until her college years at UMass Lowell that Ruby officially pursued her own path as a singer/ songwriter and performer. She lent her soulful voice and polished songwriting skills to recording sessions as well as performed with bands in and around the Boston area. 

​

Over the years Ruby has had the opportunity to be featured on many projects throughout New England. 

Recent accomplishments include winning the 2024 New England Music Award for Soul/R&B Artist of The Year and a feature on NH Chronicle WMUR in May of 2024. Ruby also won the 2024 New England Songwriters competition in Hip Hop and R&B for her song “Thank You” and charted #1 on Urban Influencer R&B Soul chart for her song "Step Off".

​

Ruby has released several songs this year as part of a release of 2 EP’s which include production by the legendary Boston Hip Hop artist Edo G, French beat maker SAMerican and New Hampshire producers Byron G. & Fee the Evolutionist.
