Mars - Spookey Ruben

Toronto-based pop musician/composer/video artist was born in Ottawa, Canada, grew up in Holland, Germany and Washington D.C. In the early days, Spookey's parents insisted he take up an instrument and so he chose classical guitar. At age 13 he got his hands on an electric guitar and wound up spending the rest of his teenage years playing in array of hardcore and speed metal bands (most notable: TRANSILIENCE). It was at this time that he received his nickname "Spooky" as a result of high school pals ribbing him about his metal-worshipping appearance of long hair and satanic T-shirt.
