Stories of Love & Regret
"Silent movies in black and white with smoke drifting across couples embracing to the Tango - this is the scene that Ruth paints with her music."
Ruth Roshan & Tango Noir have just released their third, original album, "Stories of Love and Regret". Influenced by European tango and waltz and evoking the atmosphere of a 1930’s French Salon, this recording combines lush arrangements with Ruth’s bittersweet lyrics to create music which is both elegant and beautiful, new and nostalgic.
Featuring:
Ruth Roshan (Vocals, Mandolin), Amir Farid (Piano), Phil Carroll (Accordion, Flute), Aaron Barnden (Violin), Caerwen Martin (Cello) and special guest, Philip Rex on Double Bass.
