STEVE & VIVIAN RUSKIN - IN CONCERT
Steve and Viv Ruskin, in their over 35 years as a duo, have been influenced by many musicians and genres. Sharing a love for numerous musical styles, they are always discovering more. They slide comfortably from ballads to blues, celtic to contemporary, rockabilly to reggae, folk to jazz, with originals and a dash of Latin added to the mix.
Though Steve is an acoustic piano player at heart, the more portable keyboards have opened up a world of multi-instrumental opportunity, allowing the most effective sounds for each song. He also plays a mean harmonica~!
Vivian's musical roots came from generations steeped in the songs of the prairies and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Her strong and versatile lead vocals are complimented by Steve’s tasteful vocal harmonies. She adds guitar to the instrumental mix.
They live in the Comox Valley and enjoy performing there as well as other venues - big and small - on Vancouver Island
