| Colin Randall's Top
10 |
|
Colin Randall has
written about and reviewed Folk Music for the
Telegraph for nearly 20 years and as such has
become one of the most respected and well versed
reviewers around today. He keeps abreast of all things folk on
his website Salut!
Live, where he reviews new
releases, interviews the stars and engages in all kinds
of debate on Folk.
Towards the end
of every year Colin produces his Top 10
of the year list, which always contains some great
albums.
He reviewed Threads back in
December 2007 calling it a "Stunning
Debut" having already published his
Top 10. However, he did state that if
any late releases were good enough he would consider
amending his 10.
True to his word
Colin took another look at his Top 10 Albums of the
Year and we are delighted to see that
Ruth's Threads has made the list.

| Bob was "Chuffed"
|
|
Along with her Cellist Hannah Edmonds,
Ruth (with a mixture of excitment and nerves),
played a great set on the BBC Radio 2 Bob Harris
show. Going out live on Saturday 8
March, Ruth sang 3 songs from the album sandwiched
between the likes of The Beatles and The Kings of
Leon. The team at Bob's
show were really pleased, saying
"A result! She sounded great
and Bob was chuffed".
Check out what Bob
played and listen in to his great mix of
music every Saturday. Also check out the "Radio
Highlights Montage" we've put together at Ruth's
myspace to celebrate Threads
radio play to date.

| Folk Rising

One of Ruth's tracks will appear on the
forthcoming compilation CD "Folk Rising 2". This
great compilation introduces listeners to some of the
hottest new talent on the scene and we are really
honoured to have been asked for a track. The first
Folk Rising album included such names as Tim van
Eyken and Devils Interval so Ruth is in good
company. Look out for the CD in June and we will
keep you posted.
