Chris Ruble Band to bring the country to the river

LOCK HAVEN — The Chris Ruble Band is this Sunday’s attraction at the J. Doyle Corman Amphitheater and Floating Stage as part of the Lock Haven Summer Concert Series. The concert begins at 6:30 p.m.

Born in 1984 in the small country village of Reedsville, Chris began singing with a busy traveling gospel ensemble, In Spirit, at the age of 4. He has been playing and continuously fine-tuning his piano skills since the age of 5 and grew up learning and loving all kinds of music, especially country music.

Now becoming one of the most recognized, awarded, talented artists with the fastest growing popularity in the Pennsylvania region, Chris is loving what he does and has his sights set on a full career of singing and performing nationwide. His stage shows are energized, passion-filled, and full of great music with originals and covers. Venues re-book him each year, stating the show is one of the best country shows they can find, and that wherever he goes, his loyal fans follow and he makes piles of new fans.

He loves his audience and wants them to really enjoy themselves, he says. As stated numerous and often by show attendees, Chris’s vocals are some of the best vocals you’ll hear live.

He plays keyboards and guitar in his performances as a country music artist and Inspirational vocalist. He writes and publishes his own music and has been singing professionally for 10 years. His self-titled original album is now available.

Chris has a large following of country music fans in central Pennsylvania where he sings the latest country hits as well as his own original music.

A life-long Christian, he is a widely acclaimed contemporary Christian and country gospel singer, who also performs countless concerts in many Pennsylvania churches and programs.

Chris has a dynamic five-piece band that travels the road with him. Their stage shows are full of original and hit songs.

Band members include: Mike McCartney — lead guitar; Dusty Ronk — lead guitar; Gary Miller — bass guitar; Darin Rex — drums; and Trace Fisher — background vocals/tambourine.

As a widely acclaimed true performer and someone who has the right tools to make it in the business, Chris, whether doing a solo show or with his band, never disappoints. For more information, photos and a schedule of the band, find Chris Ruble Music on Facebook.
