Influences
Still love alot of the soundtrack of my yoof - as well as faithfully taping the charts every week I was brought up on . . . . . .
ella fitzgerald - 10CC - stan getz - michael jackson - the police - oscar peterson - simon and garfunkel - the beatles - eurythmics - manhatten transfer - hue and cry - queen - prince . . . . .
Then I got switched onto soul - aretha - stevie - donny hathaway - marvin gaye - bill withers - james brown and the like. . . . .
Mr. Hammond made sure I became fully aware of and fell in love with the entire back catalogue of . . . . .
little feat - tower of power - miles davis - the meters - deep purple - herbie hancock - steely dan - john scofield - wayne shorter - dr john - weather report and a whole stack of other jazz and funkarama . . . . .
Over the years I have also become partial to
james taylor - jill scott - beady belle - india arie - frank McComb . . . . ok, that's enough to be going on with, so I will finish by adding that I always have been rather partial to a pounding drum extravaganza at the end of a swinging big band tune which goes on long enough for the rest of the band to go for a swift pint. . . .
HELLO!! I am a musician from Bristol UK who likes to sing, play keys and sax and I am lucky enough work with lots of lovely like-minded people. Hope you like the tracks from my first album and the other tracks I have put up.
I've toured and recorded with that there band Morcheeba, and now as well as doing my own material I'm playing with . . . . .
ILYA - this genre-defying band morphs at will from burlesque to glam rock to slapped-out-mermaid-blues - and that's just on one tune- lovely stuff!
THE FORSTER-HAMMOND TRIO..... - we do the Hammond organ thang - yes, i do play the hammond organ, yes my name is Ruth Hammond . . . .

Hell lovely Ruth! How are you? How are Louis and his big sis?
You must probably have far too much on your hands to be thinking of going out to the theatre but still I thought I would let you know that SENSE OF SELF, a new duet created and performed by Mélanie Demers and myself, will hit the Arnolfini next Thursday May 1, 7.30.
It would be lovely to see you there but of course family duties are I understand quite consuming for you at the moment.
