Ruth Manning and the Prospectors formed as a band in the fall of 2016 and began their musical journey around the province of Nova Scotia at various festivals and events.  They have been entertaining crowds ever since playing a mix of Country from the classics, to the 90s to current, 50s/60s Rock & Roll and Ruth's original music.

Current band members are Ruth Manning - Lead vocals, piano and rhythm guitar, Joel LeBreton - Lead guitar and vocals, Andy Quinlan - Bass and vocals, Bob MacDonald - steel guitar, Scott Redden - drums.  Together they form a tight, professional sound.
