Stella Ruze is an award-winning folk rock band from Philadelphia, PA. They blend four-part vocal harmonies, infectious rhythms, and tasty horn arrangements into a new, genre-bending sound. The band performed at the 58th Annual Philadelphia Folk Festival, has been featured on WXPN and Radio 104.5, and won the Folk category of the 2019 PHL LIVE Center Stage Awards. With an EP and LP already to their name, Stella Ruze released their first full length album, The Greater Dog, in January 2020. They celebrated the release with a sold out show at Boot & Saddle in Philadelphia.
