Ruth is a sensational vintage singer who will add old-style pizzazz to your party, event, wedding or corporate function.
She’ll take you back to a golden age of glamour and song; marvellous melodies made famous by artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simon, Dinah Washington, Judy Garland, and many more.
Ruth also loves to perform contemporary numbers with a vintage twist, everything from Beyonce and Madonna to Blondie and Britney.
Fifties and sixties numbers are also in her repertoire if you’re looking for a slightly more recent vintage vibe.
For those throwing a 1920s or Peaky Blinders style bash then Ruth has a specific roaring 20s set which will add a decadent twenties vibe to your event.
Whatever the event, the performance is not just about the music, the whole look is also important to Ruth. She always wears the glammest of dresses-to-die-for and creates a whole vintage experience.
Whether you’re looking for background vocals to add some ambiance to your party or you’d prefer more audience interaction, Ruth is an experienced artist and can provide either of these options.
All equipment is PAT tested and Ruth has public liability insurance as well as being a member of Equity.

My baby just cares for me
I wanna be loved by you
It had to be you
You're nobody til somebody loves you

The very thought of you
At last
I love being here with you
I only have eyes for you

Someone to watch over me
It's all right with me
You took advantage of me
Stormy weather
Cry me a river
The lady is a tramp
All I could do was cry
A tisket a tasket
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Please don't talk about me when you're gone
