About Ruby Jones

Hi! My name is Ruby Jones, I'm 18 and I'm from Northern Virginia. 

Ever since I was little I've  been taking all kinds of music lessons. When I was in middle school I started teaching myself how to play guitar using Youtube and my mom's old guitar. Once I'd learned a few songs and chords, I began writing my own songs too. 

Throughout High School, I was the lead signer of my schools rock band. As a part of this group, I've performed at various places in my hometown, including the Falls Church Fall Festival. I've also been able to record several covers with the band in a professional environment at 38 North Studios. Outside of school, I took private voice lessons with Celesta Tow at HUM District Music, who not only helped me improve my singing but also helped me start my solo career in music. 

At the beginning of 2023 I started booking solo gigs at local Virginia venues. Since then, I've had the opportunity to play at festivals, farmers markets, breweries and wineries all over Northern Virginia, including at the Adams Morgan and Petworth Porchfests and as the opening act for Watch Night on New Years in Falls Church City. 

In spring of 2024 I was accepted into Belmont University's Songwriting program. I took advantage of this amazing opportunity and moved to Nashville in August of 2024, where I currently live. I am now earning my degree in Songwriting at Belmont. I am so excited to start my next chapter here in Nashville and for all of the wonderful opportunities that await me!
