Event Details
"When hearing Ruthie Foster for the first time, it is the same as taking a bite out of the sweetest and most delectable piece of cake for the first time... how soulful Foster is!" states AMERICAN BLUES SCENE. "'Promise of a Brand New Day' is actually a consolidation of the various musical genres that have always been and remain a part of Foster's eclectic yet distinctive style. There's a fair share of blues ("Singing the Blues"), gospel (a rugged version of the Staple Singers' "The Ghetto"), country soul ("Outlaw"), R&B ("Second Coming") and soaring pop ("Learning to Fly")... it's another remarkably strong and mature entry in a sturdy body of work..." says AMERICAN SONGWRITER (Album Review of GRAMMY® Nominated 'Promise of a Brand New Day').
Important Event Information
2025 GRAMMY® Award-Winning, 6x-GRAMMY® Award Nominee & 12x-Blues Music Award-Winning Singer & Songwriter RUTHIE FOSTER has been described by ROLLING STONE as "Pure magic to watch and hear" and by NPR as a "Vocal powerhouse." Ruthie won the 2023 Blues Music Award for "Contemporary Blues Female Artist of the Year", and in 2021 she won "Blues Vocalist of the Year" at the BMAs (her 7th win!). Ruthie comes from the tight-knit musical community of Austin, TX, where it's tough to get away with posturing. You either bring it, or you don't. If you do, word gets around. And one day, you find yourself duetting with Bonnie Raitt, or standing onstage with the Allman Brothers at New York's Beacon Theater and trading verses with Susan Tedeschi. Foster's latest album 'Mileage' won "Best Contemporary Blues Album" at the 2025 GRAMMY® Awards. BLUES BLAST MAGAZINE raves, "Fosters knock you off your feet vocals will find your soul and quite possibly make the hair on the back of your neck stand up."
