About Me



Jeff Reuben is a singer/song writer based out of Newport, RI. Formerly the guitarist and singer of bands such as Teknique and Ills Nebbis, and recently an honored member of The Crayons, Jeff Reuben has grown into a writer and performer whose music and personality can captivate a crowd. Meaningful lyrics and a style that is both dancable and relaxed give the music an edge. Compared to the likes of Dispatch, Jack Johnson and Maroon five, Jeff Reuben's songs are sure to not only progress, but also endure.Check out my blog for updates and random thoughts and findings.
