“Music is a source of unending joy. It is also a place where we can understand our own pain and the pain of others. Music matters. Where would we be without it?” – Ruth Nina Welsh
Let Ruth’s emotionally captivating acoustic music, evocative personal storytelling, and soaring, heartfelt vocals weave a path into your soul.
Ruth Nina Welsh is an English singer-songwriter, pianist and guitarist whose signature, haunting vocals captivate listeners. Ruth’s powerful lyrics and acoustic mix of styles – blues, folk, country, up-tempo and ballads – attract fans of singer-songwriters like Sandy Denny, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Joan Armatrading and Suzanne Vega.
Severe ill health stopped Ruth’s musical career back in 2002. Although she was no longer well enough to play and perform, after many silent years, Ruth began releasing her catalogue of studio songs and home recordings in 2019. These recordings span four decades of creative work. All the newly commissioned painted artwork images are taken from photos when Ruth was singing and playing.
Ruth has currently released one EP and four albums – Breathe, Somehow, Heartland & Misfits. An album of cover songs is coming late 2025. Scroll for Ruth’s current releases and video highlights.
