For today's episode, I chat with folk singer-songwriter Ruth Theodore, who joins me to discuss her new album 'I Am, I Am.' Ruth and I discuss her battle with breast cancer and how it influenced the making of the album, her love of Nina Simone, and losing and regaining confidence. ✨ MORE ABOUT RUTH THEODORE ✨ Ruth Theodore is a folk artist based in the UK, whose unique style and sound dissolves the boundaries of gender and genre and subverts the typical singer-songwriter conventions.
