Russell Lavey
It's just me your cliche indie rocking multi instrumentalist, a bit neurotic, part slacker, with a madman's aesthetic. A self aware megalomaniac... Solipsist to the bone...
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
My different projects all have different histories, I guess you could say that the one thing they all have in common was music. Just desire to make music.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Sometimes at open mics, or in a bar, I've played a few live shows with previous bands and hopefully will play more in the future.
