Sam Russo: General Info

Member Since	1/22/2008
Band Members	Sam Russo
Sounds Like	I’ve chosen “The Dirty 13,” because I think it best exemplifies his ability to cram a novella into three minutes. Just him and a guitar — an angrier, wittier Billy Bragg is one way to approximate his style, though that’s far from exact, and he’s a lot more original than that. - WARREN FUCKING ELLIS "Sam Russo is putting out some of the most fabulous punk folk I’ve heard in a long, long time." - KEATH at ROCKSELLOUT.COM "What he lacks in finesse he makes up for with a hale and hearty vocal, cracked and rich." - Sonic Dice "At one point he told everyone to go to work the next day and smack their boss in the face as it’s ‘the best thing you could ever do, I really fucking mean it – do it’. Laughter ensued but this was no joke request – he really did fucking mean it!" - Danny Sambuca, Soic Dice
Record Label	Rocksteady Pickpocket

shawn.	May 15 2009 11:35 PM Woke up to hear a brand new song by Sam Russo. Set me straight for the rest of the day, hell.. even the week.
Bananatown Magazine	May 15 2009 10:48 AM ha ha. well, it's nice to be first. it probably did need clarifying, i think. definitely had fun - we'll be on the lookout for you in future. have you got a mailing list? if so, can you add skankinglessons@hotmail.co.uk?
Bananatown Magazine	May 14 2009 7:09 PM hey dude. that might've come out wrong - not hawaiian in a musical sense but in the easy-going charm and stripped down lo-fi feel i picked up a really laid back vibe. the summeriness of the "hawaiian holiday" must've come from a balmy summer night and road-trip. it wasn't so much about music - more atmosphere. perhaps i'll bob back and clarify that. i did properly enjoy you though. :) love jamie
Beverley Kills	May 14 2009 3:59 PM Ha ha! :)
Beverley Kills	May 14 2009 12:37 PM "Sam Russo was great as an opening act – breezy, feel-good acoustic soul that’s a bit like Chris Murray on a Hawaiian holiday." http://www.bananatown.co.uk/ Gx
