This venue--The Kessler Theatre in Dallas--is the coolest. Big enough, but still intimate.
Hadden Sayers opened, and was a 12 out of 10--great singer/songwriter/guitarist/bluesman. Then he switched from acoustic to electric guitar and played in Ruthie's band, doing some great guitar solos and backup singing, as well as a duet with Ruthie on a song he wrote. This guy is great, and is a perfect fit with Ruthie's show.
Ruthie was...well...Ruthie. It's impossible to put into words how awesome she is. I've heard her sing live probably 20 times, and she never fails to astonish. Her voice is unbelievable, and she really knows how to use it. Mostly it seems as though she just gets out of the way and lets her voice do its thing. If you've never heard her live, DO IT. Make it a bucket-list item. Oh, and besides her singing, she's a first rate guitar player (and piano too, although she rarely performs on keys). AND she's funny (as, BTW, is Hadden).
