BIOGRAPHY
Calvin Russell (born Calvert Russell Kosler, Nov. 1, 1948 – April 3, 2011)
was an American blues and roots rock singer-songwriter and
guitarist.
Russell was born in Austin, Texas, on November 1, 1948. At age 12,
Russell began learning guitar and at 13 joined a band called The Cavemen.
In 1989, he met Patrick Mathe of the French record label, New Rose
Records, while at a party in Austin and gave him a demo tape intended for
noted Austin guitarist and producer, Charlie Sexton.
He would go on to sign with the label releasing his first solo album in
1990 entitled "A Crack In Time". In promotion of the album, Russell began
touring extensively throughout Europe achieving a level of success he had
yet to obtain back in the United States.
Russell would go on to release over a dozen albums on various labels.
Throughout his career, he battled with drug and alcohol addiction and was
arrested in Texas for cocaine possession in 1995.
On April 3, 2011, Russell died in Garfield, Texas, after a lengthy
battle with liver cancer at the age of 62. He is survived by Swiss-born
wife, Cynthia, who continues to live in Central Texas and son, Justin.
