Details:
Hi,

Here is our new c.d.

Give it a listen.

I know the market is glutted with "product" but ours is really special.

At least we like to think so.

Perhaps you will too.

We don''t have a recording contract.

Nor do we have a manager or an agent.

We just like to play music, mostly in the basement, but sometimes in a club or café, and sometimes for a theater production.

We have been doing this a long time. We are getting old now. Some of us have children.

Our music is in a lot of different genres-this makes it fun to play and listen to, but difficult to market and sell.

Perhaps you would like to buy it, or write a little something about it, or play it on your radio station. That would be great.

Thanks for your time,

David Russell and the Sideshow

Press about David Russell''s songwriting:

"David Russell has created a delightful score with all the right hooks and truly creative lyrics."

--Seattle Post Intelligencer

"Great music by David Russell (who is sure to have a record contract soon)
--Vue Weekly, Edmonton

"The music is striking and lovely. A blend of Kurt Weill and more modern artists such as David Bowie."
--Seattle Post Intelligencer



Influenced by: Waits, Weill, Nilsson, mid Beatles, Raymond Scott, XTC, Nina Rota, early Bowie, 30''s swing and torch, Kinks, Costello, Porter, etc.

File with: Rufus Wainwright, The Decembrists, Beulah, Fruit Bats, Starlight Mints, Elliot Smith, the Shins, Neutral Milk Hotel, etc.
