We had the pleasure of interviewing Russel Howard over Zoom video! 
 
Best recognized as the Grammy Nominated & ASCAP Award-Winning Composer with the most placements on TV + Film to date. Now 19 years sober, he is a huge advocate in the recovery space, and will celebrate his 20-year-sobriety anniversary on March 29, 2021.

As seen on Andy Cohen, Forbes, NY Times, Variety, Billboard and more, Howard has been highly decorated for his work that appears on MTV, ABC, and CNBC on shows like Keeping Up With the Kardashians and The Bachelorette, for his collaborations alongside Hollywood’s most notable producers such as Scott Storch, and with celebrity musicians such as Jay-Z, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Miley Cyrus, DMX, Lupe Fiasco, Paris Hilton, Paul Wall, and more. As co-founder and head composer of Signature Tracks, Russell Howard has won five ASCAP Awards to date for being the composer who has the most placements on television and film to date.

A true businessman, Howard spotted the need for quality music in television and decided to found Signature Tracks alongside childhood friends David Lasman and Adam Malka in 2008. The rest was history. Together, they produce track after track daily to keep up with the television and film industry’s fast-moving demand, successfully cornering the market and taking over from all angles. 

Russell got his start being signed to Sony to produce Kobe Bryant’s album, which included a song with Destiny’s Child starring Beyoncé and a single with Tyra Banks. It was then that he struck the interest of Jay-Z, who decided to buy two tracks that landed on his album and made Russell a Grammy-nominated producer. From there, he signed a deal with Babyface Edmonds’ label as an in-house producer. He went on to produce for DMX, Lupe Fiasco, Paris Hilton, Paul Wall, Seal, and so many more…

When not working in the studio, Howard enjoys spending time working out. Now 19 years sober, he is a huge advocate in the recovery space and will celebrate his 20 year sobriety anniversary on March 29, 2021. He resides in the OC, with his son.
