I like all kinds of music. To me music is the only international language. Music doesn't know any race, religion or cultural background. It's there to feel with your heart and your emotions. It's always nice to meet "soulmates" who think the same way...
I live in Belgium, where I was born in 1960. Asked for my nationality I often say: I'm a citizen of the world.
All my compositions are original. Besides music I write poems, novels, articles...
All my music is free downloadable, if for personal use only. If you want to use it for commercial purpose, please send me a message, I'm sure we can agree on terms of use. All my music is copyright-protected, as stated by Belgian and International laws.

Russell Swallow is one of those lucky pre-Brexit kids who spent two years living between London and Berlin. His sound is a refreshing synthesis of the classic British singer-songwriter tradition blended with ambient Berlin soundscapes. He uses confessional lyrics and allegorical storytelling to create songs that range from hushed, prayer-like confessionals to soaring, indie epics. 
 
Swallow established himself as a solo artist after moving to Berlin in 2016 and has since toured extensively throughout Europe, playing over 300 shows in seven countries, with festivals in London, Germany, Switzerland and France. He has been support for the likes of Kimberly Anne, Leddra Chapman and Kal Lavelle and performed at venues such as Kantine am Berghain (Berlin), Green Note & Union Chapel (London).
 
Inspired by the likes of Bon Iver, Jeff Buckley, and Jon Martyn, Swallow taught himself to write songs by blending his passion for poetry and short stories with his newfound love of indie-driven sounds, whilst growing up in Suffolk.
 
Remixes from latest EP Body Like Braille are released this Summer, with new self produced music coming later this year. The record captures Swallow’s haunting vocals, shimmering electric guitar and lush electronics.

From the same dream-river that gave rise to The Lost Gecko, comes The Sleeping Otter — a quieter echo from the same heart.
Where The Lost Gecko roams through folk, fire, and human ache, The Sleeping Otter drifts beneath the surface — exploring the slow tides of memory, the hush after the storm, and the soft pulse of the unseen world.

Both live in the same creative forest — songs born from reflection, spirit, and the strange beauty of being alive.
The Sleeping Otter is the stillness to The Lost Gecko’s motion.
A companion in the same evolving story — two sides of one voice.
