Ruthie Lamb is a powerhouse singer with some powerhouse people in her corner. Her talent, drive and songwriting abilities have led to a number of radio-ready songs.
The Toronto-based adult contemporary singer/songwriter has just finished recording City Of Lost Souls and Prayer For A Dollar with producer Michael Borkosky (illScarlett, Ryan Malcolms Low Level Flight) at Torontos The Back Room studios. They were mixed by Juno Award winner Vic Florencia (Esthero) and mastered by Joao Carvalho (producer of Pilate).
I met Mike through Joao and Emmanuel Patterson (House of Blues). Mike arranged the songs and worked his magic and the result is two songs that Im very proud of, says Ruthie. He captured the emotional intensity of each song and I am very grateful for his guidance and wisdom.
The two songs are in addition to the significant material Ruthie has amassed after collaborating with a host of notable musicians, including Chris Chaney (Panic Channel, Janes Addiction), Juno Award winner Greg Kavanaugh (Wendy Lands, Ashley MacIssac), Dean Truitt (Steve Perry, Motley Crue), Jim Huff (I Mother Earth), Dale Harrison (Headstones), Lawrence Katz (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones) and Carvalho.
City Of Lost Souls is particularly emotional for Ruthie. On a flight to Los Angeles, to meet with some songwriters she met through Guns N Roses producer Mike Clink, she was suddenly inspired to write the lyric and melody. I began writing like crazy and when I was finis hed, I wrote 9/11 beside the title. It was only at that moment that I realized the song was about 9/11. I got chills and realized that there may have been some kind of divine intervention happening.
She finished the song in L.A. with Truitt, a friend of Clinks. I met Mike Clink through John Alexander, who helped Alanis Morissette with her career. John has been mentoring me with my career since 2005 when I met him at Canadian Music Week. He has been a believer and a friend since day one.
Many artists inspire me ranging from Sheryl Crow to the Beatles, Bon Jovi, Nickelback, Led Zeppelin and U2 and many country artists such as Keith Urban, Rascal Flatts, Shania Twain, Carrey Undrerwood, Faith Hill and legends, such as Elvis. Johnny Cash and Patsy Cline.
My music is a mix of country and rock. It appeals to all ages, My music relays a message with old world sensabilty but with an urban edge to create a sound unique to me. I've been compared on stage to songstresses like Faith Hill and Carey Underwood, as well as Shania Twain.
so beautiful
