Danny Russo
"One-Man-Superband" & DJ
Danny Russo is a life-long musician (started sax at eleven years old) and in his
early 20's helped form the touring band for George McCrae (#1 hit Rock Your
Baby) and toured the US and Europe, playing opposite such bands as The Jackson 5,
Earth Wind & Fire, James Brown, and many others.
He later took a major career turn, and became a paramedic, working for NYC EMS. The next logical step was to become a police officer, and is now a retired sergeant from that police department. Of course, all that time he worked music gigs whenever he could fit it in his schedule.
Now back full-swing in the music business, Danny plays gigs on the sax, and also adds keyboard and vocals, making for one very full-sounding solo act.
Playing various gigs, from quiet cocktail parties, to the high-energy bar scene, to affairs for seniors, Danny covers just about any venue..... AND LOVES MAKING MUSIC (literally, his first love!)
