About Bill...
Warm, informal and fun, BILL RUSSELL is known for his ability to get his audience singing and moving. Although some of his own compositions are widely known – Spider on the Floor, Biscuits in the Oven & Les Zombis, recorded by Raffi – BILL uses in his performances and classroom visits mostly traditional material, much of which comes from his own childhood.
His three children's albums, Saute Crapaud, Zing Zang Zo !! and Bon Appétit, are all in French (with translations included) and based in the Cajun and Creole folklore of Louisiana, where he grew up.
In addition, BILL calls Old-time dances for young and old alike and teaches how to make figures with a loop of string.
