Introduction: Performing songs from the Great American Songbook is the only thing I've ever wanted to do - even prior to acting (you may have seen me in HBO's "Westworld" or "Curb Your Enthusiasm"). After my mother passed, suddenly, unexpectedly, and tragically in 2014, returning to singing is the only thing that saved my life. Bringing my heart and my passion to you for the enrichment and entertainment of you and your guests is my greatest joy in life. That, and my daughter. From street performing in Palm Springs, Pasadena, Burbank, Hollywood, Santa Monica, Tampa, and Sarasota and other places, to performing for Hotels, Shopping malls, Tiki bars, Restaurants, Social Clubs, Employee associations, Assisted living/retirement facilities, Brides/Grooms, Families holding birthday/anniversary/engagement parties, etc., I've been around the block. Literally. I was also an emcee for SoCal Ford Dealers from 2016-2018 announcing, interacting, and playing games with crowds at all manner of auto shows, street fairs, air shows, test drives and more ranging from San Diego to San Francisco. Emcee / announcer services are also available.

Jeremy was outstanding, from first contact thru the performance. Communication was excellent each step of the way. It was like having Sinatra and Martin (and friends) right in the room!! If you are looking for the best - Jeremy is your guy! Book him today!! Thank you for doing such a great job!! You rock!

Jeremy provided excellent entertainment for the guests at a recent home birthday party. He sang beautifully, and interacted with those in attendance. He was flexible and adapted to the venue well.

I don't always do a big birthday celebration, but when I was turning 35 last year I decided we should pull out all the stops. So we threw a cocktail party in my neighbor's backyard (in Highland Park) and we hired Jeremy Russell to sing Frank Sinatra hits and other classics. People really loved it. First, Jeremy looks the part: he has the face, the hair, the chin, the clothes, etc. Second, his voice is spot on. Throughout the night we were dancing and talking and enjoying ourselves---and often we would look up expecting to find we were listening to recorded music. But no. It was just Jeremy Russell, sounding so good you would have thought it was a 1954 recording of some guy in the rat pack. If you are looking for someone to sing crooner/jazzy/big band style music, I would highly recommend going with Jeremy Russell.

I spent 3 years studying and performing in the World Music Program at Florida State University - including the Gospel Choir, West African Dance and Drum, Brazilian Samba, and Afro-Peruvian ensembles. I also sung and performed in several musical theatre productions prior to moving to Los Angeles.
