Nedra Russ

Standing only 4 foot 10 inces They call me the Tinymight like the song say I don't take no bull and I don't give no jive Life for me has always been hard work and hard work gets you hurt I am disabled due to a major car accident and a few bad falls at work but that dose not stop me form being myself pure creative energy. If I am not writing a song playing my harp I am painting or photo editing. Thank you for stopping buy .I started playing the Harmonica at the age of 12 I have played it steadily ever since. I completely love it, it has been my rock in my hard times as well as my joy in my good time some say it is like I was born with it in my mouth and thats ok with me. My big Brother Rod always has had bands and been a singer so he has been my biggest influence making me a fan of LIVE music. I have taken some classes but mostly have taught myself. I took a masterclass with Dave Barrette in 2000 meet Lee Oscar, Howard Levy Jerry Patroniey ,Magic Dick just to name a few that were there it was a great experience for me and helped me grow as an artist. Some people goes through hard times and drink eat ect I play my Harmonica and it comes from a place down deep in my gut my belly my soul and I really feel that people hear what I am phrasing from there and that is what gets them to love my music and to feel my pain my joy and my spirit. If you go down to the crossroads and you have lived the blues you feel them and that is what others need we all need to feel, feel something, feel real, feel life know you can make it no matter what that is, my Harmonica playing is life to me ! I have learn timing to be of the greatest importance when playing harp you must give it air to breath and move you must give others that are playing with you time and air and the right mix makes it all work. I just started song writing and singing in fact just this year but it has added pleasure to my life and I hope to the people that hear it. I am also a fine artist I have painted since I was about 14 years old I have studied many forms I use a glazing process as did lots of the old masters you can see my work on my art space or the like here marked band web site It too well be getting a revamp this year to house both my music and my art.
