Ruben V and Grammy winning producer Jim Gaines (producer for Stevie Ray Vaughan, Santana, etc...)team up to create Ruben's latest CD "Labor of Shame"
Ruben V has been paying his dues since he was just a kid with a Panasonic cassette recorder and a hand held microphone. He’s shared the stage with such acts as Gatemouth Brown, Johnny Winter, George Thorogood, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Arc Angels, Storyville, Delbert McClinton, Joe Ely; why keep dropping names, he's just released his latest CD - "Labor of Shame". His music is as real as any best selling non fiction novel out there, winner of several best guitar awards, best songwriter and best blues band.Yet, you’ve probably never even heard of him!
Ruben was born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas, and started playing around town by the age of 12. His father, his uncle and his brothers we’re all working musicians; it always seemed like the thing he was supposed to do.
Labor of Shame is Ruben V at his best, with his unique blend of Texas Blues, old fashion Wes Montgomery style blues and groovin' rhythm and blues. You'll never tire of this CD!!
