| Russell is in a band called 30 Odd Foot of Grunts or TOFOG for short. The band includes: |
| Russell Crowe: lead vocals, guitar |
| Dean Cochran: guitar |
| Dave Kelly: drums, vocals |
| Dave Wilkins: guitar, tambourine, vocals |
| Garth Adam: bass, vocals |
| Stewart Kirwan: trumpet, vocals |
| So far the band has out five cds, including: |
| ~The Photograph Kills (single) ~What's Her Name? (single) ~Gaslight (full album) ~Inside Her Eyes (single) ~Bastard Life or Clarity (new full album) |
| Bastard Life or Clarity is now available in stores in the US and Canada, and can still be purchased at Gruntland. Thanks to the Grunts new deal with Artemis Records, you can also request Sail Those Same Oceans on most radio stations now too! |
| So...are they any good? Russell writes most of the lyrics for the songs and "Billy" Dean Cochran generally writes the music, but as most bands work, everyone contributes often. Gaslight is a great album from TOFOG and offers a great return to "good ole rock 'n' roll". Although the Grunts sound may not be traditional, their music is sure to captivate you with beautiful lyrics and fantastic guitar and trumpet work from Dean and Stewart (although Stew isn't on Gaslight.) I love their music and how each song tells a story with real feeling. Thanks for these wonderful gifts guys! I am LOVING the new cd too! To read more about the new cd click HERE |
