✌️ Hand Gestures ✌️ Release Debut Album on Campers’ Rule Records

Brooklyn musician Brian Russ (Backwords, Spirit Plate, The Love Supreme) has returned with a new project that feels like a full-circle moment. His new band, ✌️Hand Gestures✌️, releases their self-titled debut album today on Campers’ Rule Records — a heartfelt, home-recorded collection that reflects on creativity, memory, and growing older without losing the spark.

Joined by Sal Garro (pow wow!), Bryan Bruchman (Mount Sharp), Courtney Smotkin, and Ryan Belski, the record captures the sound of old friends rediscovering why they make music in the first place.

“There’s a real sense of lived-in beauty to these songs — the sound of an artist rediscovering what he loves most about making music.”
— We All Want Someone to Shout For

Hand Gestures will celebrate the release with a show at Baker Falls on November 15.
