The Two's

Imagine a child of the 80s/90s underground scene falling in with a 70s prog, classically-trained cellist. What do ya get? An unexpected, genre-bending sound. “It's that renegade, freewheeling approach to music...which gives the band their charm." Says Bob Langham of Muse-ical Graffiti.

The Two's perform original music and re-imagine covers. In various incarnations, they have performed at multiple venues and festivals, and opened for such acts as Heart, Tim Reynolds, Zucchero, Walter “Wolfman” Washington and Bonerama, among others.

About Ruby Rendrag
Ruby – our band octopus- plays guitar, footdrums, sings and writes most of The Two’s original material. She was born to a Houma Indian Mother and a banjo playing, West Virginian Father. Ruby has been a part of the New Orleans music scene for over 18 years performing as a solo artist and as a side woman with many local acts. She lives a life immersed in music. As owner and manager of NOLA Muse, she helps local, national and international artists plan and execute their recording projects. She infuses The Two’s with lyrical immediacy, a percussive guitar style, a solid beat and her bluegrass-Led Zeppelin-80’s underground influences.

About Suki Kuehn
Our cellist Suki Kuehn was made in Japan (a Navy brat). Growing up he was exposed by his parents to every kind of classical and theatrical music. Although he became a nuclear engineer, Suki has studied cello “on the side” from the fifth grade on. He has lived throughout the US, finally settling in New Orleans after a stint driving subs for the Navy. He plays either an old French cello that for who-knows-how-long lived in a barn south of Paris, or a battered German cello bought from an ancient woman in a dark French Quarter alley. Using a few choice effects, Suki adds force and texture across the full range of the cello, hinting at rock, folk, jazz and classical influences.
