The Most Unique, Fun, Live Music Entertainer You've Ever Seen!
Russ Maddox is one of the most unique and versatile performers you've seen. As a one-man band, he delivers an impressive range of hits — from current and classic rock, to pop, dance, and country — making each performance dynamic and crowd-pleasing.
After years of drumming and singing in various bands, Russ set out to create something entirely new. Stepping into the spotlight as a lead vocalist, he introduced a cutting-edge instrument to elevate his solo act: the Zendrum.
The Zendrum, an innovative electronic percussion instrument, is worn and played like a guitar. Instead of traditional drumsticks and pads, Russ uses his fingers to trigger sounds—everything from drumbeats to backing tracks. This setup allows him to replicate the full sound of a live band, all on his own.
“My goal is to bring the energy and richness of a full band to venues where space or budget might be limited,” says Russ. “It also gives me the flexibility to play weddings, corporate events, and private parties while still delivering a complete musical experience.”
Whether you're booking a small venue or a large celebration, Russ Maddox brings big sound, versatility, and personality—solo.
