Russ Lorenson Comes On Hero’s Journey

📢 Cancer Took Russ Lorenson’s Singing Voice, But Not His New Album! 🎵🎙🎁

Hey Heroes! In latest episode of Hero’s Journey, I talked to jazz singer Russ Lorenson. Russ is known as “San Francisco’s cherished crooner,” and has an impressive career spanning multiple decades.

In the episode, I talked to Russ about the importance of music in schools, getting diagnosed with HPV-positive tonsil cancer, musical theater vs. solo performing, Russ' history with Christmas, and more.

We also discuss Russ’ latest album, “Standard Time: Live in New York,” which features 2008 recordings of him performing at the iconic Metropolitan Room. Russ is excited about this new release, as well as the possibility of revisiting and releasing more of his old performances.

New Newsletter Section!

📢 Introducing The New Section Of Heroek Headlines: Heroek Happenings! 📺🪐🎮

I’m super excited to start implementing the section “Heroek Happenings” into each installment of Heroek Headlines that goes out from now on.

In the past, Heroek Headlines has been used for bigger announcements like new music or podcast episodes. But now, between Robotek (my second YouTube channel), the Gun Vio-Let’s Talk project (gun violence activism), and my social media pages (me, lol), I’m putting out a lot of content!

Heroek Happenings is going to be in every Heroek Headlines that’s sent out as a quick rundown of all the other content I’ve put out since the previous newsletter.

I’m hoping this will keep the Heroes interested in all that I do up to date, and possibly bring the attention of more mild fans to some of my other outlets. So, without further ado, please enjoy the first installment of Heroek Happenings:
