Ready or Not!

About Me

Formed in March 2005 by Jason Hess (vocals/guitar) and Jeremy Knight (guitar/vocals), Ruin began its quest to leave a defining mark on the DFW music scene. With the key acquistions of Santiago Briones (drums) and Chris Kofnovec (bass/vocals), the band is now ready to do just that! Making use of gritty vocals, driving guitar riffs, head-banging beats and a dose of Southern attitude: Jason, Jeremy, Santiago and Chris have put their experience to use and created a force to be reckoned with both on the local scene and at the national level. Not only do these guys produce music worthy of repeated listening, but they have a live show to back it all up. Full of energy and emotion, Ruin is sure to entertain!
