Woody Russell

Russell is eclectic yet accessible, and his music leans more toward the rootsy side of Americana than the twangy side. Vocally he sits somewhere between James Taylor and Tom Waits, smooth but with a well-placed growl when necessary. Exploring social consciousness and philosophy as well as hopeless romanticism, Russell's songs are interesting and catchy at the same time ala Elvis Costello. His guitar playing is solid as well, putting him a notch above other troubadours. The quirky and offbeat 'Parts and Labor' is smile-inducing but the best track by far on this collection is the breezy We May Never Know." - Mike Farley, Bullz-Eye.com review of "Salt
