Welcome
Russ Escritt was a trade union official by day and a keen photographer in his spare time.
From the 1990s until 2012 Russ combined his love of Jazz with his interest in photography. He started by photographing David Murray playing with Andy Hamilton at his regular session in Bearwood, West Midlands and after a year or so began photographing gigs that Birmingham Jazz (now Jazzlines THSH) put on around the city.
The website contains images that Russ took of Jazz in Birmingham and the West Midlands.
