105393 Ruthie Foster w/ Seth Walker and the Bruce James Soultet late <p>On her previous albums and gigs that have taken her from choir lofts to folk bistros and onto stages in Europe and Australia, Ruthie Foster has raised the multiple flags of American music. There&rsquo;s Southern blues in her groove, rock in her rhythm, a blend of gospel redemption, country poetry and jazz elegance in her singing. Foster has a stage swagger to match hef <span><span>fiery mix of soul, blues, gospel, and R&amp;B. </span></span>Her shows have inspired a string of reviews in which the essential points are made repeatedly: Ruthie Foster merits comparison to the legends that inspired her, even as her unique contributions stake out a place of her own in the spotlight.</p> <p class="style1">&ldquo;Ruthie&rsquo;s drawn comparisons to Ella and Aretha, but musically neither is really close,&rdquo; observed the Philadelphia City Paper in one such rave. &ldquo;What she does have in common with Fitzgerald and Franklin is the irresistible blaze. It&rsquo;s impossible to look away, even close the eyes, for one second.&rdquo;</p> <p>Seth Walker is a different point of blue in American music. His songwriting draws from the entire spectrum of the roots canon and infuses it with a wellspring of Southern soul. With influences ranging from T-Bone Walker, Tom Waits, and Nick Lowe, Seth's music is at once contemporary and classic: it would feel just right hearing him between James Hunter and Ray Charles.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><em>Click "I Like It!" for a chance to win a pair of FREE TICKETS!</em></strong></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://do512.com/event/2009/11/20/ruthie-foster-w-seth-walker http://do512.com/event/2009/11/20/ruthie-foster-w-seth-walker.xml Friday 11/20/09 20091121T020000Z/20091121T020000Z 0 89.0 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:00:00 -0600 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:00:00 -0600 Click "I Like It!" for a chance to win a pair of FREE TICKETS! 62 FRI http://antones.frontgatetickets.com/choose.php?b=1&lid=37018&eid=43404 http://s3.amazonaws.com/do512/photos/206985/m_25d7ad48d47f46c8aa27a29285bb9e49_sq_90.jpg Antone's 135 Antone's http://do512.com/venue/antones http://do512.com/venue/antones.xml
