Heartbreak. Chaos. Late nights. Empty streets. Loud guitars. Louder emotions.
Ruby Jone$ is one of Salt Lake City's fastest-rising independent musicians, blending alternative rock, pop-punk, emo trap, melodic rap, and brutally honest songwriting into a sound that's unmistakably his own.
If you've ever driven home at 2:00 am with the windows down after making the wrong decision, you're already in Ruby's world.
Ruby Jone$ doesn't pretend to have everything figured out.
His music lives somewhere between confidence and vulnerability, swagger and self-destruction, heartbreak and hope.
Every song feels like another page from a diary that was never meant to be read.
Every performance feels personal.
Every lyric feels lived.
This is music for the outsiders.
The overthinkers.
The romantics.
The people still trying to make sense of yesterday.
Ruby Jone$ exists at the intersection of modern alternative music.
Fans of artists such as nothing,nowhere., Poorstacy, Lil Lotus, early Machine Gun Kelly, Juice WRLD, and melodic pop-punk will recognize the emotional honesty, guitar-driven energy, and genre-blending approach - but Ruby brings his own voice, perspective, and Utah roots to every release.

Alternative Rock • Pop Punk • Emo Trap • Melodic Hip-Hop • Alternative Pop
into something raw, cinematic, and deeply personal.
Born out of Utah's underground music scene, Ruby Jone$ has quietly built one of the state's most recognizable independent audiences.
