Reuben Whetten

A third-generation hand-me-down guitar and a deep desire started it all. In 2019, at his high school talent show in Colonia Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico, Reuben Whetten made his debut performance. He released several singles, the STRUGGLES EP, and his debut singer/songwriter album Outside in 2021. Later that year, he turned to country music with the In Those Boots EP. His 2022 album Inside continued that path, blending storytelling with his unique sound. In 2023, Reuben released six singles: Something ‘Bout Tennessee, The Day That You Left featuring Collateral Music (Kiki Gazit, lead singer of Doll Apartments), Ain’t Worth the Saddle, Cowboy Lost, Ride Away, and 2 Corinthians 4:16, showcasing a range of country styles, blending Nashville, outlaw, western, rock, and punk elements. That same year in July, Reuben began his two-year missionary service for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Puebla, Mexico. After returning home in 2025, he released Songs I Wrote on My Mission, inspired by daily journal entries about the hardships he faced. Now performing live shows and releasing new music, Reuben’s music has gained radio airplay across the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and Australia, and has been featured in regional media outlets such as Mundo Vaquero. He continues to carve out his sound through story-driven country music shaped by a wide range of influences.
