Every flutter of Ruthie Foster’s voice holds heavy layers of emotion that she delivers with effortless grace. Since debuting in 1997 with the acoustic-based Full Circle, the Texas singer/songwriter has never compromised her love of American roots music. Into the 21st century, she’s continually refined her potent brew of blues, folk and gospel, penning soulful originals that seek truth and find faith in the small things (and from within). Her covers have proven just as powerful, as she transforms early American standards and contemporary classics from the likes of Johnny Cash and Adele into spiritual journeys all their own.
