Channeling the Intensity of Love and Wanting through Music: Tony Russ Stuns with Heartfelt New R&B Single

Paying an ode to love, while simultaneously recounting his own personal inspirations, Tony Russ is set to magnetize with a new single- “I Want You So Bad”

Poughkeepsie, NY — April 18th, 2021-A dynamic icon in R&B, Tony Russ has been writing music, performing and producing original musical compositions since 1982. Breaking into the music world with the release of his much-awaited first album, ‘Back to Basics’ in 1982, Russ showed to the world an unparalleled song writing talent. The fascinating EP turned out to be a massive hit and is still being sold on vinyl records sites to date.

Having gotten back into the recording room in November 2021, the seasoned artist has showcased a sensory, brilliant, and characteristic song writing and musical ethos. With the release of his newest single, “I Want You So Bad” on March 27th, 2020, Tony Russ melds together poignant song writing and moving narratives with powerful music and rhythms.

Russ boasts an enviable discography that includes 3 new albums, 11 singles, and 15 videos. This new single “I Want You So Bad” represents a refreshing and unique, change of style for Russ, and by early updates, fans are loving the change.

Released by LandR productions, “I Want You So Bad” stands out with the artist’s noteworthy and heart-rending vocals- the artist’s best instrument due to opera training and singing for years. Russ also remains empowered by years of being on the road and performing in front of charged audiences- an experience that endowed him with a wide range of genres, and a diverse set of production styles, reflected within his recent compositions.

“My music is unique because it’s all genres and there are not any or many who sound like me. John Lennon was my hero, and his rebel influence surrounds me in my creations as I think of how he changed the face of music at the time,” says the artist regarding his new release.
