A Unique Blend of Classic Rock and Modern Elements
Led by frontman Chris Ruben, the band has been creating original music since their inception. With the help of Rich Carnella, they recorded over 100 songs and eventually formed a band with the addition of Brendan Allan on bass and Eugene Iovine on keyboards. The band’s lineup was completed with the addition of Russ Benjamin on drums, Frank Iovine on keyboards and saxophone, and Nick Marino on guitar.

The lyrics of the song delve into the theme of toxic relationships and the struggle to break free from them. It is a relatable and thought-provoking message that is delivered with passion and intensity.
A Fusion of Genres and a Distinct Sound
The Chris Ruben Band’s music is a fusion of various genres, including rock, blues, and funk. Their sound has been compared to legendary artists such as Led Zeppelin, The Black Keys, and The Rolling Stones. However, the band has managed to carve out their own distinct sound and style, making them stand out in the crowded music industry.
Continual Evolution and Anticipation for Future Releases
With their debut album “Madness On Repeat” released in 2021 and their EP “Take The Ride” in 2022, the band has already gained a loyal fanbase. Their upcoming sophomore album “AN INCREDIBLE FOREVER” is highly anticipated and is set to be released in September 2024.
The music industry has seen a constant evolution of genres and styles, and The Chris Ruben Band is a prime example of this. They have taken inspiration from the past and blended it with their own unique sound to create something fresh and exciting. With “Parasite,” the band has once again proven their talent and potential, and we can’t wait to see what they have in store for us in the future.
We the people of The Chris Ruben Band have been mastering the art of nailing and bailing since 2014. It all began on Long Island, New York with Chris spending some years developing a vast body of original works.
With the help of Rich Carnella from 2011-2013, Chris was able to record about 100 songs as well as take Rich’s teachings and move towards creating a band.
Brendan Allan joined Chris in late 2014 amongst many others who have come and gone but not without rocking super hard at least once or twice. Eugene Iovine, a friend of Brendan’s from high school joined the band on keys in 2015.
Shortly after, Russ made his way onto the throne becoming our most darling creature in late summer 2016. Frank Iovine joined the band in 2017 after helping record with his twin brother, Eugene Iovine.
We spent almost 3 full years together working on our first album that ended up moving studios twice before we had any idea what we wanted. At the tail end of that journey, we found our sixth and final member, Nick Marino.
Nick Marino’s hair is fantastic even when it’s not. He strummed a couple strings on the album in a handsome fashion. The guy just can’t be beat. A true champion.
After releasing their debut album, “Madness On Repeat,” in spring 2021, “Take The Ride EP” in 2022, the band has a sophomore album “AN INCREDIBLE FOREVER” due out in September 2024.
