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.

A quick and simple improvisational acoustic tune recorded on my iPhone with Garage Band. Originally meant only as an audio test of my new Apogee One interface, I thought it was catchy enough to post. I called it "Spring" only because I couldn…
This one dates back to 1992 or 93 or so. It falls in the wasted years between the end of the band I started playing with in high school and the band I started playing in after leaving college. It was played by a bunch of short lived bands in…
One of the few songs on my March Music list that entirely came from March, at least in terms of the music. The lyrics were written in May, but who's counting.
The guitar solos were played on my new Strat. It feels so weird.
The title comes…
Woof!
This is the first thing I've listened to on my new laptop - sounds like I'm listening on one of those little transistor radios in the early 70s!! (Except in stereo)
Think I needs me headphones...
Rocking good stuff :)
Still trying to get the hang of playing Bass ...i can't seem to put it down now.....anyway this is tonights effort....
JUST LET IT FLOW
one day i’m up
another i’m down
most days i’m just floating around
my head don’t know what my body wants…
so begins my love,
you'll feel my heart
you will know this time,
this turn is mine
i love you, you know i do
what happens now it's always true
so now this time,
you will see that my love won't die
so begins our life,
will never…
seem to forget
nothing i had
is all there is
to regret
lost since my youth
in spite of it too
my dreams
will come true
all this time that you will find
i believe that i will fly
across the world
for you
now you will see
all…

BREAKING BAD
when i was born my parents they fled
and i was dragged up through the streets…

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.
Comments made by Andrew Russe
Aw... magnificent vibe to this. LIKE!
A tele and a strat - all you need! Love the sounds. Nice playing too.
Oooh! Like it.
Worth every second
Nice one. It's quite amusing, I'm a life-long strat user, but I'm playing an ES 335 and an SG most of the time now!
Like it. The new strat might feel weird, but it sounds like it knows what it's doing!
Does the business :)
Oh yeah. I think my laptop's speakers have been christened now!
Woof! This is the first thing I've listened to on my new laptop - sounds like I'm listening on one of those little transistor radios in the early 70s!! (Except in stereo) Think I needs me headphones... Rocking good stuff :)
:) YEAH Love it
Don't know the original, but I loved this.
Tasty track. Like it.
Nice one. There's something very satisfying about playing a bass, isn't there?
Liking what you've posted so far. Looking forward to hearing more.
I kinda like this too - even after I'd realised "that's all it was". And then it went off quietly... Wonderful sound.
Oh yes
LOL It was called "R 3" when I started listening... I thought I recognised them drums/geetars :)
My my... there's a whole lotta of rocking been going on this weekend!
There's a whole lotta dust coming off that reclining chair...
Oh yeah...
