Dr. Ruth

Styx, Journey, Boston, Bad Company, Toto – if you know and love these bands, Dr. Ruth is perfect for you!  If you remember the seventies and eighties as a time of classic rock tunes and find little appeal with today's music, listen up!

Dr. Ruth was thought up by six Phoenix musicians back in 1991 who realized that for whatever reason most of the working cover bands were playing watered down renditions of the same old top forty tunes.

The band decided it was Classic rock for them.  Classic rock is just that, classic! It is supposed to bring back memories and get your glands going. What a great way to appeal to a large and hungry demographic!

The idea was simple enough. Start a cover band. Play the instruments. Sing the songs. The material is all upbeat classic rock n' roll that most other acts won't touch because of either talent or equipment limitations. Dr. Ruth plays something for everyone.

During its 14 year history Dr. Ruth has opened for Kansas, Cheap Trick, Billy Idol, Steppenwolf, REO Speedwagon, Joan Jett, Blue Oyster Cult, The Tubes, Warrant, 38 Special, The Phoenix Coyotes NHL Hockey Team and many other national acts. Suffice it to say this band is just as comfortable in front of 10,000 fans as they are in front of 200.

Their sound is so authentic, you will be amazed by how they sing the songs you know and love – Dr. Ruth is simply “the bomb” when it comes to Classic rock at Center Stage!
