Ruth Dolores Weiss is an Israeli musician. She released her second studio album, Be'Ivrit, to critical acclaim in Israel in August 2008.

There is no other word to describe the encounter with the voice, talent, sensitivity, emotion and spirit of Ruth Dolores Weiss." Another Israeli music critic, David Peretz, one of the first to hear Weiss' songs, said it was like discovering Billie Holiday or Björk in Ashkelon, her hometown.
