          BRIAN "Dogman" RUSSELL is new DRIVIN' RAIN Bassist

BRIAN "Dogman" RUSSELL is the new bass guitarist for DRIVIN' RAIN. Brian has played in several midwest rock acts, like Times Beach, Dillagence and Thunder Bay (with Tommy DeWolf). Russell now lives in Cape Girardeau, Mo and is already working hard on DRIVIN' RAIN music. "Brian is the guy we've wanted for quit some time" says the bands frontman Timexx. "And he just gels so well with Brad" he adds. Brian also handles the back up work wonderfully. His voice seems to blend perfectly with the band.
"He is really what we need to fill out this band. He works so great with us and sounds damn good." Timexx ends.
The band is busy working on the new show and original music. Be watching for new show dates to start in December. However DRIVIN' RAIN may do some showcases and privet gigs in late November. But watch for them in your town as the new tour kicks off in 2000!
New band photos and more info on the Dogman will be posted soon on the groups home page. http://rosecity.net/drivinrain
