Ron Hubbard - Songwriter / Lead Vocals / Lead Guitar

Ron started playing guitar at the age of 10 and got so hooked on the strings that he went on to attend Grant McEwan College in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. After touring with Valdy and Leo Paul Ganett he joined The Wildcats.

Ron is fondly remembered locally for his time with The Buster Boogie Band and as the Founder and Leader of The Truelys, who released an all original Christmas Album in 1998, before moving on and forming The Ron Hubbard Band who have opened for Dr. Hook and Doug & The Slugs.

Always on board for Charity and Fundraising events, Ron co-ordinated an event in Sylvan Lake, Alberta on News Years Eve 2000 with The Ron Hubbard Band and 5 other local bands that raised $2001.00 for the local Food Bank. Ron has had his band perform at fundraisers for Wheel Chair Ramps, the victims of Hurricane Katrina and has been available to help anyone in need or with a cause that needs to be addressed.

Ron's music tackles the issues of our time, such as Canada's Fresh Water Supply, Nuclear Power and Weapons, Suicide and Global Warming. Of course, there are also songs about old girlfriends too. Ron says that he gets most of his inspiration for songs from current events and cites the newspapers and media as his main sources of ideas. He is happy to be releasing his latest album "The Ron Hubbard Collection - Volume 1".

"Talent with something to say" is a good description of Ron Hubbard.

Karen Galloway - Keyboards / Backup Vocals

Karen started playing piano at the age of 5 and continued Classical training for 10 years. Her piano teacher used to give her heck because she was always rewriting the Classical pieces to the way she thought they should sound.

Wanting to learn some Jazz with the intention of being able to play with a band, she enrolled in the Red Deer College Music Program and graduated with a Diploma in Jazz piano.

While in College Karen won the Shaw Cable Scholarship

2 years in a row and was involved in the formation of a band called Pilot Project. She also played in a band that opened for Ponty Bone and The Zydeco Band and Lester Quitzau and sat in with several local bands until she moved to the Yukon.

Karen also plays Trombone which she played in High School, the Red Deer College Jazz Band, Symphonic Winds and, eventually, The Yukon Jazz Band.

After returning to Red Deer, Karen joined The Truelys for the recording of their 1998 all original Christmas Album, A Christmas Celebration.

Karen has been a member of The Ron Hubbard Band since it began and is extremely proud of their latest album "The Ron Hubbard Collection - Volume 1". She hopes that you will like it too.

Jimmy has been "beating the skins" for over 30 years. He "boogied" across Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan with The Buster Boogie Band.

Also a member of The Truelys, Jimmy's fine drumming style greatly enhanced their 1998 Christmas album.

Now, this "really nice guy" is drumming for The Ron Hubbard Band where his song writing and drumming talents shine with just the right lyrics at the right time and the perfect drum roll at the perfect time.

Jimmy is also a Producer of the album "The Ron Hubbard Collection - Volume 1".
