Ruth Goller
Hailed by The Guardian for her βthunderous bass-guitar hooksβ, Ruth Goller is a bassist, vocalist, composer, environmentalist, and now solo artist.
Goller helped lay the foundation for the UKβs jazz renaissance, from her years on stage with Acoustic Lady and Melt Yourself Down, to more recently Let Spin and Vula Viel, whilst performing and recording with the likes of Shabaka Hutchings, Sam Amidon, Bojan Z, Marc Ribot, Rokia TraorΓ©, and Paul McCartney. Intimate voice and bass guitar entwine in improvised tandem on Gollerβs debut album exhibiting a confidence that reflects her experience at the vanguard of the European jazz scene. A work of uncanny and original beauty on which Goller has reached deep within to find pure honesty and musical originality. As ECM Reviews put it, Goller βunravel(s) an intimacy so deep it (feels) almost blasphemous to be privy to its wonders.
