For twenty years, Sony Award-Winner, Russ Kane, was the voice of Capital Radio’s ‘Flying Eye’, forming an on-air partnership with Chris Tarrant to create the most listened-to commercial radio show in the world, with a daily audience in excess of 4 million. Today, Russ can be heard on BBC Radio London, where his weekly, hour-long news reviews have earned a further loyal following, and on TalkRadio.
In January 2019, Russ joined forces with Howard Jameson on Women’s Radio Station and to create Men’s Radio Station. These revolutionary global internet radio stations aim to provide a non-judgmental space in which men and women can ‘Really Talk’. Russ’s goal remains to remove the stigma that surrounds mental health and to improve how it is addressed in society.
Russ Kane’s one-man stand-up show, ‘Kaned Laughter’ has played to sell-out audiences in London and Los Angeles. He appeared at world-famous Edinburgh Fringe in 2019. His first novel, ‘The Gate Keeper’ - a dark tale of good vs evil, redemption, sacrifice and Jack Daniels, was published in Spring 2019, to rave reviews. The second novel is currently under-way.
