Ruthie Foster at City Winery St. Louis

City Winery St. Louis presents Ruthie Foster live on October 22nd at 7:30pm! Just last year, the blues legend Ruthie Foster took home her first-ever Grammy, winning Best Contemporary Blues Album for her album Mileage. The award was a long time coming for the star, who has been hustling to make a life as an artist possible for over three decades. Foster was first signed to a major label after completing her tour of duty as part of the US Navy. She then abandoned music in 1993 to take care of her mom who had fallen ill. Shortly after her mother’s death, the singer decided to find a path back to music as an independent artist.
