Ruth Greenwood
My CD "I Won't Apologize", recorded with Danny Parks on guitars and mandolin, is now available on my website http://ruthgreenwood.com or on CDBaby at http://cdbaby.com/rgreenwood. And various songs are getting airplay on FM and Net stations in the US, Canada and Japan! (Tonight I'm recording a promo for Shonan Beach FM, a station near Tokyo...a station ID in my best broken Japanese!!)
I am, most of all, a songwriter, loving anything anything creative, honest and bittersweet. I've had songs recorded in New York and Nashville, on national TV and on a #1 album (ok, that one #1 or in the Top 5 all across Europe, on RCA)... Play occasionally at Nashville's Bluebird Cafe . Will be back there in April and also at New York City's Bitter End on 4/23.
My song "Wish I'd Known" was chosen as one of 10 finalists in the Country Division of the USA Songwriting competition, and my song "I Won't Apologize" was awarded an Honorable Mention in the Nashville Song Search contest.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I used to perform a lot, both solo and with bands, on both coasts, but now it's mostly for writer nights in Nashville.
Anything else?
I love ASCAP.
I also teach songwriting to students nearby and online.
