Beginning the year in Detroit accepting the ASTA Award<BR/>in Alternative String Style in Detroit to performing this summer at CMA Music Fest<BR/>with Big & Rich in Nashville (which aired on ABC and still runs on<BR/>GAC), receiving the great honor of being awarded the Daniel Pearl<BR/>Memorial Violin by Mark O’Connor at the San Diego Strings Conference to moving to Austin and sitting in with Texas greats<BR/>like Johnny Gimble, Dale Watson, Jim Stringer, Erik Hokannan, and Bob<BR/>Schneider, and 9 time Grammy winner Asleep at the Wheel,<BR/>this year just keeps getting better.<BR/> In 2007, Ruby Jane also established her own publishing company,<BR/>Random Chocolate Tamale Music and recorded a 6 song EP, "Creekside" in Nashville, and played the Grand Ole Opry again!<BR/>"Creekside" features two original songs, two classic fiddle tunes, a<BR/>swingy jazz tune, and a Johnny Cash cover. These showcase not only her<BR/>talent as a great fiddler but her deep, bluesy voice and immense<BR/>maturity. Ruby Jane's talent as a multi-instrumentalist is heard on<BR/>the EP as well. Produced by Steve Fishell (Grammy winner / Emmy Lou Harris cd), it foreshadows a long and<BR/>exciting career steeped in the love of American music.<BR/><BR/><BR/>"She can melt a rock." Marty Stuart<BR/><BR/>"Ruby Jane is the next big news in country music." Bob Schieffer, CBS<BR/>Evening News<BR/><BR/> “When I listen to your music, a wave of pure bliss fell across me, for your talent and beauty are breath-taking. It's refreshing to see a strong young woman playin' fiddle and singin' from the heart!” Says a myspace fan of Ruby Jane<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Ruby Jane can be found on the web at www.myspace.com/rubyjanesmith,<BR/>www.mississippifiddler.com,<BR/>www.youtube.com/tigerlovesmith.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
