The Main St. Songwriter Series
Episode 1: Ruben V
Ruben V is a well known and well respected singer/songwriter/guitarist that hails from San Antonio Texas. He has been a fixture in the San Antonio and Austin Music Scene since the 90's. His soulful music is heavily influence by blues and R & B music and his songs are not what you would typically expect from either of the aforementioned categories. Although this podcast is not focused on live performance or stage presence, one cannot mention Ruben without mentioning he is an unstoppable force on stage. He will run over you like a train from the first song to the encore. In this episode, we discuss his beginnings in the Austin scene, songwriting and our common love of blues music and guitars. If you don't know Ruben yet, I hope this episode lets you in on one of Texas's greatest treasures.
