Bio

‘WE ARE NAKED’
“You can’t keep a good song locked up in your head for too long before it works its’ way out into the world”.
So says singer songwriter Rus Harrison as he embarks on re- assembling the ex members of 90’s jingle jangle indie band “ Playing at Trains” and “Cygnet Ring” for his latest incarnation – “NAKED.”
For all those that remember Rus’s 90’s bands there will be tuneful reminders of a bygone age alongside new vibrant pumping tunes sure to get the crowds moving!
With the bands new album “WALKING WITH THE GODS” released across all platforms, look out for some warm up shows across Manchester UK before they head off across the UK and Europe.

Lyrics

LET THE RIVER FLOW

An old man once told me all you need to know
Just slow it all down and go with the flow

A young man I once was
Thought the planet had my back
blind confidence led me to every cul de sac

All that you attract
will make the river flow
All will come to pass (WHEN YOU)
Let the river flow

A teen dream I have been
Inexperience as my tool
I thought I knew the secret
You knew I was a fool

A babe in arms I once was
With an empty head to fill
My Ma my guiding hand
My moral compass she is still

All that you attract will
Make the river flow
And All will come to pass (if you just)
Let the river flow

And so it spins like a merry go round
Far in the future I can hear the sound
Of children singing a song I know
A tune I taught my children passed on like the river flows

An embryonic start
Made from the love of 2 before me
Now here I stand a singer man
With 2 of my own part of the family…
