"It's just normal life. It's extraordinary."

Mary Ruth is all of 18 years old, and already inspires me on the regular. Her music is soulful and my kids love playing it in the car!

In her words: "I chase sounds that mimic day-to-day life and how extraordinary a normal life can be. I write songs about how it feels walking through a farmer's market Sunday morning or driving around downtown with your friends or discovering what it's like to be so attracted to somebody. It's just normal life. It's extraordinary."
