Celtic Connections proudly presents John Smith and Georgia Ruth
Georgia Ruth is a musician from Aberystwyth in West Wales. Using folk influences to create a truly unique sound, her debut album Week of Pines won the Welsh Music Prize in 2013 and was nominated for two BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. Georgia collaborated with Manic Street Preachers on their Futurology album (reaching #2 in the Official UK Album Charts.)

2024 sees the release of Georgia’s fourth studio album - Cool Head. Taken its name from a phrase her dad would always use to urge calm thinking, the album presents a candid and affecting collection of songs, spanning wide-open Americana to 60s-influenced folk ballads. Georgia describes it as a long drive through night into morning. It is co-produced with long-time collaborator Iwan Morgan.
