More Than a Band

We’re a Vibe

The Adam Ruthless Band isn’t your average blues-rock outfit. We’re a crew of musos who came together through jam nights, chance encounters, and a shared obsession with that perfect groove.

What started as spontaneous sessions evolved into something bigger: a band that lives for live music, raw energy, and the magic that only happens in the moment.

Mid North Coast Locals

Based in Port Macquarie and gigging across the wider Mid North Coast, we’re proud locals who love lifting the scene with original music that hits you right in the chest.

You’ll hear blues and rock at our core — but we’re not afraid to wander. Funk, soul, roots, psychedelia, swampy slide, even some cheeky reggae — if it grooves, we’re in.

Why We Play…

We’re not here to chase trends or play it safe.

We’re here to make real music with real people — and to connect through sound, energy, and shared moments.

Whether it’s 50 people in a pub or a festival crowd screaming back at us, we show up the same way: fully locked in and ready to let the music lead.

The Muso's Hideout

Hidden away just outside Port Macquarie, The Muso’s Hideout is our jam space, studio, and spiritual home.

It’s where we write, rehearse, experiment, and get lost in sound. Many of our best songs (and wildest jams) were born here.

It’s more than a studio — it’s where the band becomes the band
