Bio ::
The Fall of 2001 meant the beginning of an 10 year musical struggle. Late nights down Military Drive, through the six mile creek with the ditch to retire for the night brought endless amounts of time for the band to talk, listen to music, and drink. Chris, Mateo, and Myke met each other through a plan to make music. During the Summer of 2008 the 3 decided to try again after 2 attempts. Since, Viet…-Ruse has been actively playing locally, regionally, and nationally and have also released their debut album ‘Viet-Ruse’ on their own label. As a band, they seek to be a musical force with a catalytic approach for musical and social thought. As individuals, they are serious musicians who love what they do.
Viet-Ruse is a Latin influenced Reggae Punk band from the South Side of San Antonio, Texas. Some have compared Viet-Ruse to The Clash, Stiff Little Fingers, The Jam, Mission of Burma, The Rifles, and many more.
