Ruth Wyand

Songwriters Showcase


Songwriter Showcase encourages the creation and sharing of original music by regional singer songwriters.

Demonstrating guitar virtuosity with powerful fingerpicking, bottleneck slide and a warm alto voice, Ruth plays a mix of Americana, jazz, blues, folk, country with a portion of Piedmont picking and bluegrass clawhammer thrown in. Her songwriting is universal, using a melting pot of styles with lyrics that are timeless, relatable, emotionally resonant, sometimes witty, sometimes serious but always human and genuine.
