RUTH anD Ben
|
|
Ruth teams up with her son, Ben Wetherbee, an exciting fiddler, guitar player, and songwriter, to perform electrifying Appalachian, Cajun, and contra dance music. Add a banjo, accordion, or bass player and the house really heats up with The Ruth and Ben String Band! Ruth and Ben liven up coffeehouses and pubs, community events, weddings, and parties.
Tony Watt, organizer of "Bluegrass Tuesdays" in Cambridge, Mass., says "When they've brought their high-energy old-time music to Bluegrass Tuesdays in the past, they've absolutely electrified the audience, which is really saying something for all-acoustic music." |
Joe Pete & Ruth
|
Ruth and her husband, Joe Pete Wetherbee, play an upbeat blend of country, folk, and old-time music mixed with rockabilly, Cajun, and blues. The rhythmic groove of Ruth’s guitar-playing sets a solid foundation for Joe Pete's ripping lead guitar work. They bring to the stage a wry, humorous sensibility that gets audiences feeling good and moving.
