Combining lightning guitar runs with unique Flamenco, Brazilian and Rumba rhythms provides an electrifying combination of sound and songs. Russ Hewitt explains, "My style is a fusion of everything, sometimes combined simultaneously without regard to the rules that govern each genre. A Latin/rumba base exists in all my songs but each with a distinctive movement." Holding a performance degree in Classical guitar from University of North Texas, Russ is a voter for the Grammy's and Latin Grammy's. Russ Hewitt’s recordings 'Bajo el Sol', 'Alma Vieja' and 'Cielo Nocturno' resulted in five Top 40 Smooth Jazz singles, Grammy consideration multiple times, and has received reviews and press from all around the world. A recipient of five Telly Awards, Russ composed music for the upcoming feature film “Thirst: Mission Liberia” that has already won a Silver Telly in the Spiritual – Faith category and a Bronze Telly in the Documentary category. The latest CD, 'Cielo Nocturno', made the ballot in three categories for the 59th Grammy Awards; won two silver medals from the Global Music Awards (Instrumental category for "Presido" and Album category); best Latin Album for April 2017 from Akademia; runner-up in the One World Music Radio Awards (acoustic guitar category); nominated for the RoundGlass Music Awards in the Best Jazz Single category ("Samba Sao Paulo"), 'Record of the Year' and 'Enlightened Musician of the Year.'
