Ronboy - PRESHOW RITUALS

In this Preshow Rituals segment, the alternative rock artist, Ronboy, reveals what she does before taking the stage. You can check out the rituals below:

I bring my tennis gear on the road and like to play before shows. I’m grateful to currently be touring with a fellow tennis player—we’re always scheming on ways to fit in a match. It’s a great way to see the city we’re in, get a healthy sweat going (hello, endorphins), and maintain some sanity.

Back at the venue, I replenish with my number one hydration love: coconut water. I’m drinking that and warm water throughout my pre-show routine. I’m partial to a few brands, but honestly, give me a one-ingredient box of coco wa and I’m happy. Traveling to different cities, being exposed to unfamiliar pollen and allergens, and dealing with venues blasting the AC… shit gets dry. I keep a portable humidifier running to help clear up congestion and dryness.

Now, I’m not superstitious, but I am a little-stitious. Just before going on stage, I find a solid surface—ideally a brick wall—and do a kind of high-five routine. It’s grounding and also a nice warm-up for my hands. Word to the wise: avoid hollow drywall or shared walls… you’ll scare the hell out of people.

Keep up with Ronboy on Instagram, TikTok, and her website.
