Geeky, smart, artistic. That's how Ramune describes herself.
RAMUNE
UPDATE 5/8
Ramune has gone from solo player to a trio now called Rocket 3! Catch a show at Ash Street Saloon Wednesday 5/9. Listen to our conversation, and check out the new music video.
It's pronounced "ruh-moon-ee". Thanks to a Lithuanian mother and a father from India. Ramune is by way of Russia, also some time in Sweden. Now Portland. Now THAT is globa! Ramune credits her engineer mom for instilling a big sense of self-worth and confidence and empowerment in herself. And that's something Ramune wants to bring to other young women.
Ramune discovered Reel Grrls and Grrlz Rock and it sounds like she's found her calling.
We talked about her international roots, and working her tech and art lives into one. Possible? But we begin our conversation with that name! Hard to live with, right? Always having to correct others on how to say it. LISTEN BELOW.
