Band Members
An endless passion for music, for voices,
for discovery, for people, for life.
Trevor Richards
Trevor started playing drums at 12 years old. He is literally obsessed with drums and percussion, but dabbles in guitar and piano as well. He helped form RuKus and absolutely loves the interaction with the band.
When Trevor is not practicing drums, he enjoys hanging with his girlfriend, shopping for more hats and Hawaiian shirts, playing video games, and spending time with family and friends.
Mason Mackinon
Mason (mack) is the lead singer and rhythm guitarist. Mason has an amazing range and is passionate about music of all genres. He drags his acoustic guitar around to shows hoping they will eventually play some acoustic tunes, but that is NOT the direction RuKus is going (haha).
When not singing and playing guitar mason likes to hang out at the beach, enter into swimming competitions and shop for more guitars and amps.
Colin Lillich
Colin is the lead guitarist and one of the backup vocalists in the band, and is extremely dedicated to mastering his craft of lead rock guitar, while also having a good time on his way to the top.
Armed with his Gibson Flying V and giant Marshall stacks, he melts people away on the left side of the stage every show. He would love to go professional with his guitar playing, and share his blend of EVH inspired riffing and soloing with a dab of sass with the entire world.
When he is not locked in his bedroom and practicing, Colin enjoys going on the boat with his band mates, playing xbox, and spending time with his friends, siblings, parents, and girlfriend.
Hey I’m Ethan Langley, bassist of Rukus. I grew up in Wilmington, NC and absolutely love the city and state. I’ve been playing stringed instruments for just about 6 years now all ranging from Banjo to Guitar to Bass. Being in the band lets me play out my passion and my heart. My band mates are some of the coolest people that I could share this experience with and I wouldn’t plan on changing anything, unless you call us being world famous a big change. Aside from music, I love cars and motorcycles, graphic design, engineering, and collecting various items. Rukus made me feel like how I always dreamed and the band fever is sky high.
