Kevin Richard Russell (Born 12 January 1964, Hamburg) is a German musician and belongs to the three founding members of the German rock band Böhse Onkelz (Evil Uncles). He was their singer from 1980 until the breakup of the band in 2005.

Biography

Kevin Russell grew up as the youngest of three children (one sister and one brother). His father, originally from Britain, worked at this time as a pilot for Lufthansa. His mother was an alcoholic, which had a negative impact on family conditions. Russell sporadically attended sixth-form high school, but exited without graduating. He finally tried to graduate by spending a year taking vocational classes in an electrician-training school.

In 1977 he and his family moved from Hamburg to Hösbach. There he became acquainted with Peter Schorowsky and Stephan Weidner. Together they founded the band "Böhse Onkelz".

Russell worked as a mechanic on a ship, and later in the tattoo studio of his friend.

His characteristic is his very rough and brutal voice.
