Ever since Ruhan Jia's first appearance in January at MIDEM 2012, her stunning performance has garnered attention around the world. In March, she was invited to perform at the United Nation's 2nd Asia-Pacific Climate Change Adaption Forum in Bangkok, Thailand. Later that month, Interpol extended an invitation to Ruhan to record the single "Proud to Be" in Johannesburg, South Africa as part of their global anti-fake medicine campaign, leading to her being appointed China's goodwill ambassador for the project. More recently, she was invited to perform in Moscow for the first rAsia.com Festival devoted to Chinese, Japanese, Korean and South East Asian cultures.

"Time To Grow" is the first album to be released as part of the "Earth's Music" project, which is part of China's 12th Five-Year National Economic Development Plan. The album showcases Ruhan's rich and melodious voice and wide vocal range. Consisting of ten tracks sung in Chinese as well as two songs translated in English, the album represents a truly cross-cultural project. The writers for this album include the Swedish pianist Robert Wells, whilst the production mixing team is led by the Swedish mixing engineer, Bernard Lohr whose credits include working with Celine Dion, Westlife and Il Divo to name a few.

"Time to Grow" is licensed and released by The Silva Screen Record Group, an international London-based independent record company, which is also home to one of the world's leading film and television specialist soundtrack labels.

Ruhan's credits include her acclaimed performance in the double Grammy Award winning album, "Calling All Dawns" by Christopher Tin. On the album track representing China, "Dao Zai Fan Ye" ("A Path Is In Returning" based on Laozi's Dao De Jing), Ruhan superbly blends Kunqu opera skill and western classical soprano singing. In 2009, Ruhan won the First Prize at the 18th Discovery International Festival and Second Prize at the prestigious Llangollen International Music Festival held in Wales.
