Ruth Theodore Launch Tour

Ruth Theodore has just signed an exciting record deal with Ani Difranco's Righteous Babe Records in the USA and is off on tour there for the foreseeable, but before she goes, to celebrate the release of her highly anticipated 5th studio record Ruth and her knock out band are back on the road in the UK in April-May.

Theodore has assembled another exciting line-up of talented musicians for this launch tour. Notably amongst them is award winning Zimbabwean bassist Edith Weutonga.

This time they perform the new album which is the fruits of her further collaborations with Grammy and Tony award winning bassist/producer Todd Sickafoose and Swiss American percussion virtuoso Mathias Kunzli, recorded in upstate New York by Eli Crews (Tune Yards).

The last time I played the London Palladium Ruth Theodore was on the bill with me. I watched from the wings inspired by her authenticity, her connection with my audience, and her free artistic spirit. That night I saw her as a true Righteous Babe. Last fall, when she reached out with her new album, it seemed the perfect time to reunite and help introduce her to North America. Ani DiFranco
