New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.
I wrote this one in 2002 during the "dark years" lol. I've ummed and aahed over the years on whether to…
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…

A tale of keeping your head above the water, or not...
Recorded Jan-Feb 2011.
I wrote it many years ago, never thought I'd ever do anything with it.
I intended to record this with just an acoustic and my new EDB (electric upright bass…

THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…
Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
Great stuff Andrew. Have a listen to my solo stuff...Tiggy Acworth. Many thanks for so many kind words...keep singing and eventually the world will hear!

That be some good production right there. Dag nabit! I enjoy the different looks of the verse sections as the progresses. And the big vocal harmonies...I thought that ac gtr lick was gonna fly off into django territory.....always fun listening to your tunes. I learn something everytime.

A few months back we had a "Beatlesfest" on songcrafters.org.
I contributed this and Yesterday.
This one's a bit of a departure for me. Not the song itself - it's been one of my favourites ever since I was tiny (I preferred Robin Gibb's…
Oh yeah, I love me some Beatles! Any Beatles, even the trippier stuff (maybe especially, haha). This one is certainly a fave of mine, and you give a great rendition here. I did not know Robin Gibb had a version of this, dang Imma have to check that out too! You definitely have the soulfulness down, as I feel that's what the song entails. Great great great! =D

I could sit and chill with your music all day, it's quite relaxing and thoughtful. Much respect over here, lovin the smooth blues-y, folk-y sounds. Very very much so. And the stories you tell are impeccable, I can feel the emotion. You're very real. Keep it up!

I'm sorry to say I don't know the original, but your version.... well, wow! It reminds me of "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley.... I don't know why, but perhaps it's in the same vein. I don't know, but anyway, just beautiful, really.

Woof! Liked the first track, this one is huge... and I'm not even on my big monitors. No idea what this style/genre is called, and like I said before, I don't usually go for it, but there's something about the way you guys do it that grabs me.
Well I'm always searching for different sounds to add to my songs, hopefully I've have here. Mind you, learning to play Violins, Violas and Cellos took a bit of
work .... He He He ......
Wow. That works, big time. Very cool sounds enhancing those acoustics. Love how they interact. Love the guitar solo too. And it's a really cool song. Big thumbs up here.

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…
A song I wrote in May this year!
I tried to not make the layering too intense in this... hopefully I achieved that lol?
I think the mix has gone a bit weird at the beginning?? sorry about that... might go back and change it at some point in…
Here's another original song that I wrote this year!
I may have gone a little insane with the layering in this one... but I kinda like it so I won't apologise for it lol
Lyrics:
You can take your time, I'll wait for you
Suppose that's all…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Yeah.Takes me back to high school.
Like. So clean.
Clean! Like the simplicity. The intensity.
Love the delicacy of it.
Don't know how I missed this one. I'll second Tess' comment, WOW.... "Shine" hits the mark!
I Really Like This One.The Acoustic Guitars Are So Crisp And Clean
You are a mad man! This is F'ing epic! I can here influences throughout , Floyd, The who to name a couple. Spot on everytime. Magnifico!
Sweeeet! It's early morn but need to listen again late at night with a large bourbon. Another excellent track Mr Russe
very wonderful work,, seems like you had a bit of fun doing this...
still kicking ass i see andy, still on my piepod for the walk to and fro work. braw tell yer maw.
I wish i could sing like that...damn...those harmonies are bad ass...your music is much more than a song. It seems locked into almost a epic tale..
Beautiful cover!
Great stuff Andrew. Have a listen to my solo stuff...Tiggy Acworth. Many thanks for so many kind words...keep singing and eventually the world will hear!

This is a very intoxicating flavor, between the melody and the music and the content... Great job!
Thanks so much for your kind comments.....and keep up the great music...."Anyway" is a wonderful track

What grabs the most about this is "things are bad, but I ain't dead yet.." Love the blues! I felt this one a lot.

Yep
Wow! On to the next :)

Hahahahahah - I fell off my chair laughing when I saw your comment, Greg :)
I was listening to this earlier when work got in the way... Now I'm back, and it feels like an old friend on second listen. Very cool track.
Cool noodling doodle
Cool title
Yep
There's some stunning playing/feel on these tracks.
And another.
And this. Love the guitar playing.
Yeah. This is cool.
Kinda spooky ... I like what you're doing with this one.
Oh my goodness. This is such a powerful song.
I did miss this one. Glad I found it now. It's a stunning song.
Oh wow. It was fine without Ray's additions... but with... it's just WOWSERS good.
This is mighty fine. Any good? Yep, it certainly is.
Dear oh dear oh dear ... lol
