The term “R&B’ derives from genres such as jazz, gospel, the blues; all sounds created to uplift, cope and find hope in troubling times. That is the same mission founder Donny White achieves with his Ruckus & Bliss (R&B) apparel brand. An LA native and Federal Way local, White combines his passions for music, fashion and uplifting the community, through clothing that carries a message every person can relate to. With a nod to his production company Good Noise Music, where “Life is full of Noise-Make it good” serves as a motto, Ruckus&Bliss captures that noise and takes it a step further. When it’s not one singular chord, but a kaleidoscopic symphony of feelings, thoughts, questions, etc-you get Ruckus & Bliss. More than selling clothes, this brand highlights the art of duality, coexistence and figuring it out along the way. Wearing R&B is not merely keeping a pulse on the latest trend, it’s being an active part of a community built on hope, belonging and expression. It’s Ruckus & Bliss because there’s a spark when the two coexist.
