    As I work as a freelance musician I have to be versatile, adaptable and creative. I have many bands and play many sessions with so many different players.(I am available for sessions, gigs and tours) . It would be impossible to list them all here. I have to be able to read, lug and play in many different styles and genres such as, Rock, Country, Jazz, Blues, Classical, Latin, Swing, Folk, Bluegrass, Pop, Dixieland, Commercial etc, that I may be called for. It's called making a living as a professional musician in Australia. See my website (russellbayne.com) so you can get an idea where I'm coming from. I have written many original compositions in many styles... .. Have a listen to the listed tracks which are all original compositions..... [TRACK 1] (Jazz] .. BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.. Guitar - Russell Bayne.. Bass - [OJ] Owen Newcomb.. Drums - Dominic Hede,.. Keyboards - Lindsay Stafford.. Trumpet - Shannon Marshall.. Vocals - Mike Ross.. .. .. [TRACK 2] (Funk) .. CITY CRUISING ..
