heres the article about her :
Upcoming musician and artist Ruth Ferguson is only 19 years old; she has mastered acrylic and pencil art. She has also branched out to the music production by teaching herself to sing, play guitar and keyboard. Ruth makes original music with her friends and you can find it on sound cloud : ruth-sui-generis. She wants listeners to feel a source of relatability also a possible physical reaction like a “foot tap” that brings a kind of comfort. A great song to look up is “Be strange” written by 
her friend named David and herself, she mentions that many people have come to her telling her they hear it every day which is a surprise for her. She worked on this song with the thought of the transition from high school to college; she kept the struggle of being pressured to decide what to do after graduating in her mind. Her top 3 influences are Fiona Apple, for her “brilliant way with words”, she continues with her good friend Johny Shemz who has taught her much about guitar, and most importantly Prince.  As the creative artist she is, she turned this into something positive recording the song that connects to many people. The theme in her music is a self analysis when it comes to love and life. Ruth hopes listeners hear this as well as a feeling of reassurance. Ferguson’s process when making her music is a careful one, she will not begin a song until she finds the lyrics first because it sets up her feelings so then she will come up with a melody. All forms of art take up a place in her life however music is the biggest because it gathers people no matter if it is her listening to other’s music or supporters are hearing her music. She is a talented painter and drawer, her pieces show a darker side which include portraits of real people and fictional images. She shot a photo shoot with Danny Reyes and Branden Ruiz, it described as comfortable and easy. She is a fan of the photos and looks forward in working with them again.
