Acoustic tale recorded Christmas 2010.
I wrote it years ago. Even tried rehearsing it with the band I was in at the time. But I couldn't play it properly. It took several weeks of practicing DADGAD (never really used it in anger before) until…

Recorded Oct 2010.
It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…
One of my favorites of yours, Andy. But then again ... I think I like all of your great songs the same. You have such a terrific voice, and your songwriting is as profound as your lengthy explanations (which I love, btw! :) ).
Keep them coming!

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

Than moments…

A song that I wrote in the mid-90s, became a bigger number when my band 'Y' took it into the studio and we tightened it up a notch. Proud of this one (as of all of my babies) G:)
The story is of the actor on the stage...
A story of conflict between a couple. I played the part of the male, Shelagh (I think) was herself. Came together in the studio and was a favourite live.
Here's number 08 in the saga of Reg……………..Reg has been so down since he stopped drinking…….he feels so alone he's gone and done something stupid…..but luckily he was found by the postman unconscious on the steps leading to his bedsit….the postman…
For the grandchildren, when I get some!

This is a little ditty I did for a local songwriting group I'm in. The prompt was "No instruments" and a previous prompt was "One chord only", so I combined the two.

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Agree with Bethan great cover
My word, this is fantastic. Wonderful vocal, makes it compulsive listening.
What a performance! Most excellent cover.
ya floored me here, man
I won't repeat what I said at Songcrafters. You know I love this song. And all the others ... :)
Yes this is simply cool/would sound nice live.
One of my favorites of yours, Andy. But then again ... I think I like all of your great songs the same. You have such a terrific voice, and your songwriting is as profound as your lengthy explanations (which I love, btw! :) ). Keep them coming!
Great song-writing - awesome delivery!
Think this melody would translate magically to a music box. Beautiful and bittersweet song. My, your vox are astounding.
You rule
Great song, love the sudden change of tempo in the middle. Really enjoying your voice! Perfect diction!
Nice ballad Andy. Pretty good piano playing if you ask me. Lots more goodies here for me to listen to - and listen I shall, as soon as time permits.
Hi, Andy! I just joined the site. Good to find all your great music here. :) Regards, Steffen

Faved from the intro... Sounded so sweet, and the lyrics looked good... luckily the track lived up to it all! Lovely song. Yep, winner.
Oh yeah, very well put together. Love that bass groove holding it down.
Nice one. Big vox!
lol - like it
Yep...
One of my (many!) favourite songs. Nice performance.
Nice one. This thing better have a happy ending!!
Wonderful video. Reminded me that I haven't watched all of my Noggin the Nog DVD yet.
Like this a lot.
Well ole Reg certainly is in a bad way... Nice one, love the vocal on this.
Ooo yeah...
Aw this is just gorgeous. Good song well delivered - and some mighty fine arranging, love the sound.
Cool! Rockin and janglin all at the same time. Like it a lot.
Ha! Ha! Laughing out loud here. Brilliant. And a fine acoustic sound, and the slide work is just gorgeous.
When I read the "about" I thought "uh-oh, it ain't gonna grab me" BUT! It's fab, love it :-)
Yeah, slightly different, but still Reg. Like it.
I can hear The Who too on this. Like it. Love the groove.
Oh yeah, what a sound. No messin, couple of guitars and bass... and wow
Ah... another goodie. Vocal, piano, and cello - what a fine combo they make.
Nice one T. Loving that guitar sound
