Ruthie Foster

Grammy® Award–winning vocalist and guitarist Ruthie Foster returns to Australia in 2026. 

As an extra special treat, this is one of the select shows on Ruthie’s tour where she will be bringing her full band! 

Frequently likened to Aretha Franklin for her emotional depth and vocal power, Foster blends blues, gospel, folk and soul with remarkable authenticity. Her masterful guitar playing is as celebrated as her soulful voice. Following her first Grammy® Award for Mileage (2024), she continues to affirm her place as one of America’s most compelling artists. Audiences can expect an unforgettable night of soul, spirit and world-class musicianship.
