Ruby’s early brush with the spotlight was at seven years old, performing “Sweet Little Rock and Roller” alongside her father. Though offered a record deal at thirteen, her parents felt she was too young. Instead, Ruby ventured into modeling before embracing her musical talents in bands.

By 2010, Ruby had co-founded Revoltaire, a band based in LA. Her musical journey continued, and in 2012, she lent her voice to the English rendition of “Whatever Lola Wants” for a Pepsi ad.

Fans were quick to praise the performance online. They applauded the drummers for their synchronization, hailed Stewart as a living legend, while also commending the father-daughter duo’s talent.

Interestingly, “Forever Young” has a backstory tied to both Rod Stewart and Bob Dylan, with Stewart’s version emerging as a personal ode to his children, highlighting the emotional depth the song holds for him.

In recent years, Ruby has ventured into a solo career, marking a new chapter in her life with her engagement to Jake Kalick and the birth of their son, Otis Stewart Kalick, in May 2023. As Ruby’s journey continues to unfold, her talent and legacy as part of Rod Stewart’s lineage remain undeniable, promising more captivating musical endeavors in the future.
