Have You Heard: Joss Russell

When did you start making music and why? Started violently hitting piano keys at age four as a form of exercise.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Commercially viable pop-rock ;)

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Grace — Jeff Buckley. I've been listening to it my whole life and I'm still not sick of it. Amazing vocal and guitar work and a great mix of original songs and interesting reworked covers.

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? Playing to 50,000 at Adelaide Oval as the half time entertainment for an AFL match. They gave us our own security guard who wouldn't let anyone else use the toilet while we were in there.

Why should people come and see your band? Because local live music is awesome and drinks are cheap where I play.

When and where for your next gig? Torquay Hotel, 22 Jan.
