So Much More is a ten-track album written by Russ Poole and recorded in his home studio. The album foundations were laid during lockdown 2020 when Russ decided to re-work and re-record a few songs from his first couple of EP's. This helped Russ re-discover his love for recording and writing, and what started as one track (Alive, taken from the One More EP in 2012) soon turned into an EP's worth of re-recorded songs. These new recordings had a much more mature sound and feel to them, however they were missing something - brand new music! As time went on Russ had started to finish writing some new songs - Switch Off and Happy have since been released as singles and the final few tracks of the album were eventually finished in 2022/23, including the title track So Much More.
All songs on the album were Mixed and Mastered by Greg-Wilson Copp at Sound Shack Studios in Cheltenham, UK.
