Rube & Rake engage audiences with a mixture of stories, intricate guitar work, and rich vocal harmonies. After working together for the past 10 years out of St. John’s, NL, Josh Sandu and Andrew Laite have fused an intimate musical connection that comes across in every new song and performance.
ECMA 2022 Songwriter of the Year and 2020 Music NL Folk/Roots Artist of the Year award winners, Rube & Rake’s music is an exercise in creating something beyond the sum of their parts.

Len O’Neill, a singer-songwriter from St. John’s, Newfoundland, began his musical journey in the local pub and bar scene, playing guitar and bass in rock bands and leading the award winning indie rock band Green & Gold through two albums and several east coast tours. Influenced by a diverse range of artists spanning classic rock legends to poetic songwriters, Len crafts lyric-driven compositions exploring themes of ambition, sorrow, and personal growth.
His debut solo album, “Out Of View,” released in April 2024, showcases a dynamic evolution in his sound, marked by poignant storytelling and vulnerability. Here’s what songwriter John Moran has to say about Len’s work:
“He’s got songs that are meaningful in a way that most songwriters struggle to achieve, he’s not just stringing together a bunch of lyrics and chords that sound cool – he’s speaking from the heart and giving you something you might need. He writes in the way that you’d hope to be spoken to by a good friend during a challenging time.”
