Disappear Fear

Sonia has shared the stage with many of her heroes, including Bruce Springsteen (Light of Day, Jan 2014) and Pete Seeger (Clearwater).

When asked about her sound, Sonia reports: “I would say I think my voice is somewhere between Patti Smith and Perry Como; and my guitar style has a Gypsy Kings/Richie Havens flavor.

The newest Disappear Fear recording is 2013's Broken Film, an album steeped in folk, pop and Americana sounds.

Recorded in Nashville at the Brown Cow, from this CD was borne a successful 18-city tour with the full disappear fear band.

Opening the album is A Voice for Nudem Durak, in support of a young woman jailed in Turkey on a 19.5 years sentence for singing in her native Kurdish language.

Rutstein's 2006 Middle East tour led to the founding of Guitars for Peace, a non-profit foundation that delivers instruments to children in impoverished or war-torn nations.
