RUSS WILSON
AND
HIS FAMOUS ORCHESTRA (#1)
Russ Wilson has been called the PAUL WHITEMAN OF THE 21st CENTURY by fellow musicians and fans alike. Not just because he bares uncanny resemblance to the portly 20's and 30's dance band leader but
because of the style of music his orchestra plays.
Russ and His Nouveau-Passe Orchestra are the only big band in the Southeast faithfully and authentically recreating the sounds of 20's and 30's hot jazz and dance music. Music made famous by Ben Bernie, Bert Lown,
Ben Pollack, Fletcher Henderson, Chick Webb, Duke Ellington, "POPS" himself Paul Whiteman and many others.
Russ and the N.P.O have played for numerous dances, parties, weddings,
hotel and restaurant engagements throughout the southeast.
Russ formed the orchestra in 2003 and in 2005 they released their first CD "DOIN' THE UPTOWN LOWDOWN." In 2007 they released their second CD "SWINGIN' AT THE ARMORY"
and in late 2008 came their third CD "WHITE HEAT."
Now in the midst of their thirteenth year the N.P.O. is bigger and better than ever.
The orchestra ranges in size from 10 to 16 pieces.
If you are interested in booking the N.P.O. for a concert, dance or party in your city you will find the info on the
W.M.C. page.
