Joe Russo is an American, Brooklyn NY based drummer, multi-instrumentalist, composer. He’s most widely known for his work with Joe Russo's Almost Dead , The Benevento/Russo Duo , Cass McCombs , Craig Finn , Shpongle Live Band & Furthur feat Bob Weir and Phil Lesh of The Grateful Dead 
 Throughout phér•bŏney,’ Russo defies expectations with a collection of dreamy instrumentals and vocal tracks, channeling a sublime, reflective musicality. The wildly imaginative, yet cohesive, 9-song set moves through ethereal indie-pop, Ennio Morricone-like soundscapes, electro-jazz forays and smoldering, African-inspired guitar workouts. 
 Featuring Russo as primary composer and multi-instrumentalist, the acclaimed Brooklyn-based drummer is joined by friends and collaborators like saxophonists Stuart Bogie (Arcade Fire, Antibalas) and Erik Lawrence (Midnight Ramble Band), guitarists Josh Kaufman (Josh Ritter, Bob Weir) and Robbie Mangano (Sean Lennon). 
 'phér•bŏney' truly encapsulates Russo’s prismatic artistry, showcasing him as a composer and all-around musician outside of his fiery virtuosity as a drummer.
