Review

Ruth Wyand draws on American roots music to frame her lyrical gift and demonstrate her strength as an accomplished guitarist, songwriter and vocalist. Ruth plays through out the U.S. and Europe from busking in the streets of Paris to festival stages with acts such as John Hammond, Little Feat, Dr.John, Little Charlie and the Nightcats, Melanie, Ellis Paul, and Les Sampou. She was selected a People's Choice Award winner 1998 by the Philadelphia Folk Factory. She is the president of the Garden State Songwiter's Association and does a variety of workshops and school music programs teaching guitar techniques,songwriting, and multitrack recording for children grades K through 12 as well as college courses in guitar and songwriting. Ruth has written, produced or played on folk, country, and blues artist CD's in Nashville, New York, Philadelphia and New Jersey. She has three CD's on the Bay Rat Records lablel; The Ruth Wyand Band - "Living in Doubt", Solo - "Live at the Mermaid" and the current one Solo - "Distant Drums". The first thing that strikes the listener is her powerful guitar playing. Ruth has a unique finger style technique that combined with her palette of tunings is a show in of it self but then she will switch gears and move on to a chugging swing piece and then go all the way back to a delta influenced slide guitar number. Her vocal accompaniment is at once both languid and athletic and the songs she writes reflect her humourous and compassionate nature.
