The Real Thing Symphonic Concert
On an evening in early July 2023, music enthusiasts gathered to witness a truly awe-inspiring performance by the legendary Australian singer-songwriter, Russell Morris. The audience was in for an extraordinary treat as Morris took the stage accompanied by the grand 50-piece Southern Cross Symphony, creating a musical experience that would be etched in their hearts forever.
From his chart-topping hits like The Real Thing to his soul-stirring ballads such as Sweet Sweet Love, Morris has left an indelible mark on the Australian music landscape. Now, backed by the grandeur of a 50-piece orchestra, he was ready to take his artistry to even greater heights.
The sheer magnitude of the orchestra (Conducted by Peter Morris) brought unparalleled grandeur to the performance. With virtuosic arrangements by David Hirschfelder, the strings swelled with passion, the brass section added depth and richness, and the percussion carried the rhythm with precision. Together, they formed a symphonic force that complemented Morris’ artistry, enveloping the audience in a sonic embrace that resonated deep within their souls.

The Dreams of Jack Chrome
Jack Chrome is a very special “sequel” to the ARIA top charting Blues album by Russell Morris and Rick Springfield “Jack Chrome and The Darkness Waltz” released 2021.
This new album is a solo project by Russell Morris and this is what he says in his own words about the album…
“Jack Chrome is for me, a mythical dream-like character. His dreams are different to you, and I — as he allows us to live through, and experience them, from his point of view. They are in fact snippets of my own dreams – and flights of fancy through the mysterious Jack. From journeys to mysterious book burning, and to secrets”
This new album is a highly creative album of songs and an exciting departure of sound from anything Russell has delivered in his career.
