I am so thrilled to announce the release of my long awaited 10th recording, GARDEN OF MYSTERIES. This CD features traditional folk music, original songs by some of my favorite songwriters, as well as my own contributions.
From my heart to yours, Ruth Barrett

The songs on this CD all share a common thread. They are about encounters with magic and mystery - be it with a lover, an Otherworld being, a goddess, a transition into a new state of be-ing, or the Earth Herself. Through the doors of mystery await the possibilities of transformation should we allow ourselves to wonder and wander in the garden.

This recording is dedicated to the legacy and memory of Shekhinah Mountainwater (1939-2007), beloved teacher, priestess, and friend.

Description: Ruth's vocal and dulcimer artistry is joined with the musical talents of Amanda Barrett, Daniel Bienenfeld, Ellen Burr, Abby DeWald, Melena, Miamon Miller, Kerry Noonan, Cait Reed, Jeni Rodrigues, Sylvia Woods, and Steve Wehmeyer.
