CRITIC’S PICK: It’s impossible to understand why, at this stage of a career that started in 1999, Ruthie Foster is still playing the same stages she played decades ago. Her bluesy soul and gospel-influenced albums are consistently nominated for roots awards, she tours steadily delivering dynamic shows that result in standing ovations, and she writes terrific songs with ringing choruses like last year’s “Soul Searching.” Foster always seems one album away from breaking through, but don’t let that stop you from catching her in the cozy confines of Eddie’s where you’ll get uplifted by the energy radiating from onstage. — Hal Horowitz
From the venue:
Ruthie Foster’s ninth studio album represents a new high water mark for the veteran blues artist—a collection of songs possessing pure power, like a tidal wave of musical generosity. Healing Time finds Foster pushing her boundaries as a singer and songwriter more than ever before, creating a truly live-sounding atmosphere with the help of her band, who sound refreshingly loose and lived-in throughout these 12 songs. We’ve all been in need of some healing in recent times, and Foster’s latest provides a guide for how to move through the world with equal parts compassion and resolve.
