Welcome to the official Brad Russell website. Fans of Billy Sheehan will not be disappointed. Russell taps, slaps and shreds his four string bass sounding more like a six string guitar! His solos bring to mind Vai and Jeff Beck more than they do other bass players.On his debut cd, "Let's Hear It!" guitar great Joe Satriani joins Russell for a heavy shred fest; and drummer Gregg Bissonette (David Lee Roth, Satriani, Santana) provides rhythmic genius on all tracks, Brad Russell is a true bass hero , playing creative cutting edge instrumental rock.

What people are saying about Brad Russell:

"Brad Russell is an amazing bass player and totally outrageous musician!"-Joe Satriani

"F@#$ you!!!! this is amazing!!!! OH MY GOD!!"
- DUg Pinnick (King's X)

Brad Russell is among the best bassists in the world and is among an exclusive list of first call session bassists that my company has worked with over the year. After a long career as a high level music instructor and a supporting musician for many live gigs and recording sessions backing other highly talented players, Brad has devoted the last couple of years developing his own musical ideas into a live show and recorded product that speaks for itself. With an impressive list of contributors including Joe Satriani on guitar and a release through Steve Vai's Digital Nations, it is apparent that Brad's debut solo CD is on its way to finding an audience and is worthy of international recognition.

- Mike Varney (Shrapnel Label Group)

"Brad is an amazing player with tons of creativity and really musical chops!"
- Gregg Bissonette - (David Lee Roth, Santana, Joe Satriani)

"amazing playing, cool songs!"
