Coming from down under, Russell Morris is bring blues from the heart of Australia. We had a short chat with him about his upcoming show at Canadian Music Week.

Hammer Records: Tell us what you think of when you think Canadian Music?
Russell Morris: When I think of Canadian music I thinks of the great bands, and artists that have not only taken the world- but have been major influences world wide- from Neil Young, Joni Mitchell the Band--Brian Adams Alanis Morrissette-- goes on forever ---all the way to the current artists.

Hammer Records: How did you get involved in Canadian Music Week?
Russell Morris: Michael Chugg- promoter

Hammer Records: What do you have planned for Canadian Music Week?
Russell Morris: So far, haven't worked out what I will do- and how to approach a Canadian audience. Must admit, I am a little nervous.

Hammer Records: What message do you want to send to Canadians listening to your music?
Russell Morris: My style is roots blues- with a down under flavour.

Hammer Records: Whats coming up for you?

Russell Morris: I have had three blues and roots albums released in Australia - we will look at releasing these in Canada - one at a time.
