Music in the Mountains: Ron Artis II and the Truth

While developing his multi-instrumental prowess playing in the Artis Family Band, Hawaii-based Ron Artis II quickly took to piano and guitar as his main modes of expression. His mastery of both—in addition to numerous other instruments—quickly made evident that he was special. As he got older and played more around Oahu, others quickly recognized his gifts as well. Mick Fleetwood (Fleetwood Mac), Jack Johnson, Jake Shimabukuro and many others recognized the incredible talent that was taking root on their isolated island paradise. Since then, Ron has embarked on three full US Tours, playing sell out shows from coast to coast with his long list of collaborators and more. His debut full length album Soul Street just dropped in 2018 and has already garnered wide critical praise. The album crystallizes the full range of Ron’s influences—deep Delta Blues and Gospel, plus Northern Soul and R&B, alongside in-depth and personal lyrics—into a tight collection of fresh yet familiar songs that are at once urgent and timeless.
