Ruby Blu, is frontwoman and songwriter of Minneapolis retro roots-rock band Red Eye Ruby. Born and raised in North Dakota, Ruby spent part of her childhood in Medora—a place that helped shape her imagination and remains deeply woven into her story. TRed Eye Ruby’s music channels the soulful rock of Amy Winehouse and the rhythmic roots of New Orleans. Drawing from jazz, blues, folk and R&B, Ruby’s songs pair vintage glow with modern bite— and unflinching lyrics about life, labor and survival as a woman in the male-dominated music industry.
