Meet Ruthie Foster: 13th Floor Interview

Texas-born blues singer Ruthie Foster will be performing in New Zealand in April as part of the Grass Roots Festival.

Although she may not be as well-known as Ben Harper, B.B. King or Elvis Costello, who are also on the festival bill, Ruthie has a strong musical grounding in blues, gospel, soul and folk. Her latest album is entitled The Truth According to Ruthie Foster. The 13th Floor had a chat with Ruthie to find out more about this relatively unknown talent.
