Claudia Russell &
Bruce Kaplan
Claudia Russell is returning for her fourth visit to Música Del Río with Bruce Kaplan on guitar at her side. You may have heard Claudia and Bruce on KCBX Public Radio or during their last visit to our territory. Either way, we know you will be very glad they found their way to Atascadero once again.
Claudia has as expressive voice that is as much at home on a whispery folk ballad as a full-tilt Buddy Holly styled romp. She plays a style all her own: eclectic folk music with traces of all her musical loves…blues, western swing, rock and county. Drawing from original compositions and, beloved old favorites (some almost forgotten) along with folk and pop classics; Claudia’s performance is truly heartfelt and cleverly entertaining.
Since her first solo CD in 2000, “Song Food”, Claudia has stepped away from seeing herself as mostly an interpreter and far more as a songwriter. With the 2015 release of “All Our Luck is Changing” the folk music radio community has taken notice again and truly agrees. Claudia has hit her stride and we as so glad she is bringing it back our way.
With hints of an East Coast folk style and attached to a West Coast irreverence, Claudia’s humor, personal stories and her “Who me?” attitude makes her live concerts a delightful social dissertation attached to a wonderful songfest.
During the span of Música Del Río’s ten seasons there has never been a lack of clever and delightful voices and sounds. Claudia’s appearance here helped initiate that and will surely give it a boost one more time. We listen to her recordings often. Her CD “Live Band Tonight”, includes our all-time favorite version of Bob Dylan’s “Tonight I’ll Be Staying Here With You” and we may have worn it out.
Claudia can stay at Música Del Río for as long as she likes on April 21th as long as you stay too. It could never be enough.
