Graham Russell is a true musical icon.
He and his musical partner of 46 years, Russell Hitchcock, formed Air Supply, the song writing super duo, in the early 70's and really never looked back.
Graham's childhood was anything but normal, leaving him without a mother at a very early age. However, these stark beginnings formed in him in a sort of poetry that eventually found its way into the hearts of millions of fans, as Air Supply became a genre unto itself. He is, and will always be, a passionate man, loving his friends and family and especially his fans, with the deepest sense of love and commitment.
This is my interview with a sweetheart of a guy, and the writer of songs that make men and women fall in love over and over again. Please enjoy this very special conversation with Graham Russell, on the Rockstar Superhero Podcast.
