Rebel & Ruin is the Southern rock duo of D H Rebel and Riley Ruin. With roots in Central Florida, their music brings together rough-edged guitars, two distinct voices, and harmonies that give each song its own character.
D H brings years of experience onstage and in the studio, along with a love for guitar-driven rock and songs that tell a story. Riley brings a strong voice and an expressive touch that can meet him head-on in a rocker or settle into a quiet harmony. Together, they make room for both sides of Rebel & Ruin—the loud songs you turn up on the road and the slower ones you sit with awhile.
Their songs draw on the things that stay with us: love, distance, working through hard times, growing older, and finding reasons to keep going. There’s humor in there, too, and plenty of room to let loose.
From Whiskey Don’t Lie to From the Heart, Rebel & Ruin follows the song wherever it needs to go. At the center are D H and Riley, making music for people who’ve lived a little and still love a good song.
