Why this name?
Its my name.
Do you play live?
I have played live a lot in clubs around Colorado and Nebraska. Right now I am looking for musicians whom are willing to commit and that are willing to get on the road and play in different states.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It helps us to share our music with the rest of the world, and helps to interact with other musicians.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes
Band History:
I started at age 10 playing bass in a band called Coolslide. Played with them until I started playing lead in another band called Neon Knights. After coming home from the military I took a few years off but started writing and playing seriously again about 5 years ago. Some of you may also remember from a few years back the USA Networks series "Cover Me". I also was cast in a role on it as a prison executioner. So no matter what, I have tried to stay versatile.
Your influences?
Music is music. I cannot say I have a favorite genre of music. When it comes to writing however, you will find that a lot of my songs are very much based on real life. I have had so many emails about how my songs have touched people very deeply and personally. I know sometimes the truth is hard to face, but as long as its out there, I will write about it.
Favorite spot?
Where ever I get my big break will be my favorite place.
Equipment used:
You name it. Parker and Ibanez guitars, Marshall and Crate Amps, Sure Mics, Pearl Drums, Yamaha Keyboards, Wrangler Jeans, Stetson Hats, Ariat Boots, Broncin horses, Eosin Panther martial arts equipment, and Propel Fitness water!!!!!!!
Anything else...?
Believe in yourself, trust in your heart, and be your own guide in life, for whoever else you are listening to, may be just as lost as you at the time. Remember always, those who say it cannot be done, should never interrupt the person who's doing it!!!
I am Rory Ruff and I am a recording artist currently completely available. I am working on getting my name and music out there and I want to thank the management of this site for the wonderful job they do on here. Any musicians that are available and whom want to get their career off the ground please get ahold of me. I recently parted ways with my promotional company Dreamstar Music. I want to thank everyone who has supported me in this journey over the last few years, you all are my reason for pushing on. I also thank all whom havent supported me, or whom have said I wasnt good enough. You also are my inspiration, cause you push me to get better and better all the time.

Hey Rory,
Cool song, Tropical Moon. Love it. Great job. Hot for you.

Only thing is, IMO, the intro is too long, you think?
