URSULA RUCKER

3 pm

Join us for this unique opportunity for a hands-on workshop with American spoken word artist Ursula Rucker.

Rucker has toured with Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Sylk 130, and 4Hero in the United States and Europe. Rucker also has provided a single “Soon for Unbound”, which was off a benefit album for convict Mumia Abu-Jamal. Andy Puleston at bbc.co.uk writes in his review of her album “Supa Sista: Ursula’s vocals… a silken delivery, that like Michael Franti, demonstrates that a quiet word in the ear can speak volumes above the microphone rant”. Paul Sullivan, also of bbc.co.uk says in his review of her album “Silver or Lead: Ursula’s velvety voice…manages to both mollify and add a sinister dimension to the harshness of her subject matter”.
