Ruark & Sherman Connelly LIVE at Hero's!
A folk rocker from South Arkansas who goes by the single name Ruark released his first album, When You Coming Home, in the winter of 2019. With the help of his wife, Alexa Joyce, on bass and backing vocals, the trio toured to support the album until the big shutdown. The new drummer and additional vocals is Alexa's brother, Joseph Bethany. They are currently working on a follow up album to be released next year. In the meantime they've released a single which includes tracks "Into The Sun" and "Over Me" accompanied with videos. Kelly Daniella Norris, known for globetrotting to create her award winning independent films, produced the video for "Over Me" which features a whimsical circus theme. Jim (Nappy) Napolitano, who famously created the shadow puppets for Walking Dead World Beyond, produced the video for "Into The Sun".
Ruark grew up skateboarding and playing in punk bands. Once je realized the itch for college wasn't going away, he pursued a degree in music composition. Ruark teaches music and Alexa is a librarian. Alexa and Joe grew up in a musical family with grandparents leading music at school and church. Joe also grew up skateboarding and playing in bands. Joe has played all over Arkansas at venues and festivals along side bands such as Deep Sequence and 1oz Jig.
