With a voice that rises from tender endearments to a bluesy, impassioned growl, Ruth Gerson sings folk-rock songs that reach for the status of anthems; she's a Bob Dylan fan who can be as galvanic as Bruce Springsteen.

- Jon Pareles,
The New York Times

 

There are leaders and there are followers, and there's no denying which category Ruth Gerson falls under. Hear her now, or hear her later; either way you'll hear her and you'll be moved.
