Ruth Goller

Ruth Goller has been played over 10 times on NTS, first on 17 May 2018. Ruth Goller's music has been featured on 16 episodes.

Hailed by The Guardian for her “thunderous bass-guitar hooks”, Ruth Goller is a bassist, vocalist, composer, environmentalist, and now solo artist.

Goller helped lay the foundation for the UK’s 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 Traoré, and Paul McCartney. Intimate voice and bass guitar entwine in improvised tandem on Goller’s 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 “unravel(s) an intimacy so deep it (feels) almost blasphemous to be privy to its wonders.
