Alistair Russell
Singing and playing folk music since his teens, and over thirty years a professional musician and sound engineer, Alistair sings songs mainly from his family homeland Scotland, its neighbour Ireland, self-penned songs inspired by his world-wide travelling with Battlefield Band for 13 years, and any other song that takes his fancy.
But through all his time post-Battlefield, Alistair has kept up his performing skills. Folk clubs, Arts Centres and festivals throughout the UK are glad to book him. With Chris Parkinson, he has toured large halls in Germany for Magnetic Music, and played concerts and festivals large and small in the UK.
He will always be, first and foremost, a singer who has “a way with a song” and a performer who makes sure the audience comes first. Enjoy the music!
