060 - In Conversation with Ruth Goller - Punk Jazz

In today’s podcast Ruth Goller talks us through her inspired bass work with some of the coolest names on the London jazz scene.

Ruth has been a regular presence on the London jazz scene for several years now, toting a Fender Mustang and performing with a wide variety of bands including The Moss Project, Let Spin and punk-jazz rockers Acoustic Ladyland. Yet for all her jazz knowledge, Ruth’s unfussy technique favours sparse plectrum work over busy fingerstyle. Her background is distinctly non-jazz, and in spite of having chops to spare, an attitude of ‘less is more’ informs everything that she plays.
