Description

Lucky last for us all in our Road to Port Fairy Folk Festival podcast features the incredible Ruthie Foster.  We learn about her beginnings listening to blues and gospel in her childhood home, developing into soul and other sub-genres growing up in Texas.  Starting in a small rural town, joining the military and then the reserve, she tells us about landing her first record contract with Atlantic Records and her journey as a songwriter.  Exploring all elements of her journey, we even hear about her experiences with helicopters!  Going through her incredible list of collaborators and her 6th Grammy nomination for 2025, it’s so exciting to look forward to Ruthie’s performances next year the Folk Festival.




Thanks to the legendary Southern Ocean Sea Band for providing their track ‘Whaler’s Rig’ and our wonderful host, Frank Davidson.
