RUSS MASON
Russ is both a songwriter and a song collector who's been performing for over fifty years, first at colleges in Illinois, then on stage at many of Nashville's well known music venues, including The Bluebird Cafe, Douglas Corner, the Exit/In, and the Idle Hour, and more recently in the Portland area. In addition to performing his own originals, Russ enjoys relating stories about his musical friends, as he shares his own version of some of their songs.
As a part of the Nashville music scene that flourished for several years out at Norm's River Roadhouse, Russ organized and promoted a number of events there in support of the Roadhouse and his own Slow Cooker Music website. Along the way he’s co-written songs with Fred Koller, John Scott Sherrill, Cadillac Bob Holmes, Michael Kelsh, and others, including his son Neil, who's currently out on the road enjoying a grand musical adventure of his own as a member of Big Machine's band The Cadillac Three.
