Contemporary country rock that strikes a chord in more ways than one. JRG is a look at life from the window of a speeding train, plunging relentlessly into the night. Rich harmonies and melodious tones hide the darkness and humor that lurks menacingly beneath the surface.

Band History:
Jack Ruby’s Gun is the culmination of several projects coming together after years of investment and preparation. Rather than a set of loosely fitting ideas, JRG is carefully crafted and complete package that captures the fun side of Country music while maintaining a sharp focus on the genre.
Formula material with an adventurous slant, the music has a freshness and enthusiastic feel with an appreciation for all the good things in life.
Lyrics are filled with simple, catchy ideas and hooks, ever searching out a common thread in the listener. The music and performances are polished and structured with an emphasis on production and with home town values and a scattering of them good ol’ clichés, JRG is ready to push the limits within the genre.
Serious when it’s due, but always fun, there is little doubt that JRG could easily be the next big thing in country music.
When JRG kicks up the dirt, sometimes there are injuries.
Jack Ruby’s Gun is not yet signed and is currently self managed.

Anything else...?
Jack Ruby
Guitars, Vocals, Percussion
Founder of The Gun.
Pilot and Sea Captain.
Jack Ruby heads this all star line up and takes them to a place in the country few have been.
First performing at the age of 11, even then Jack threw himself into the shows delivering his, now famous, silken vocals while hammering away viciously on any guitar within reach.
Jake (the axe) Cullen
More Guitars.
Hostage Negotiator.
Dog owner.
Crying in the distance, lurking in every song you can find the lonesome strains of Jake Cullen and his immortal guitar craft.
Jake comes with a guarantee of dynamic performances and dedicates himself to his art. Before JRG, Jake drifted from band to band without any real direction. With JRG Jake has found his path and has become quite impossible to restrain.
Colt Winchester
Guitars, Bass Guitars.
Foreign Correspondent.
Pulitzer finalist.
The fat bottom end that Colt brings to the band is the perfect complement to the thrills and spills of the rhythm section.
Gutsy notation and subtle strokes growl below the music with stabs of brilliance taking the mood to dizzy heights. Colt asks the listener to "Walk with me", with few resisting the attraction.
