Ruth Garbus

Come join us for a visit from Ruth Garbus, performing material off her new album, Profound!

Profound is the title of Brattleboro, Vermont, singer-songwriter Ruth Garbus' third studio album for Orindal Records. Listeners of the songwriter's deeper catalog know Garbus' work not only for its minimal melancholy but for vibrant, literate lyrics that take stock of the sludge that fills our psyches and oceans. But on Profound, Garbus is admittedly happier. She is also more self-assured in her music and her place making it. On the opening track, aptly titled, "I Think I'm Ready Now," Garbus sings, "In the pink of your surroundings you can let go of shame / The lemon drops of failure all dissolve / And the sick of sweet pretending just a veil of gauze."
