For starters, Chill Russell isn’t just some super laid back dude or a command you give your dog when he interrupts your Zoom meeting. No, Chill Russell’s a talented trio of Austinites who can’t seem to stop having a blast playing alternative rock…even when there aren’t any venues open.
The three-piece penned their latest EP Soak Up The Sound before the pandemic settled in, but it’s proven to be more pertinent than they could’ve ever imagined. Recorded with the help of Chris “Frenchie” Smith, Chill Russell released Soak Up The Sound last Friday, marking a distinct moment of maturation and a glimpse of their still blossoming potential, so don’t plan on bailing on them anytime soon and instead “Hold On”!
