As co-founder of KILLER DWARFS in 1981, Russ Graham quickly gained international success, first in Canada with the self-titled debut album in 1983. The break-through in the United States came when San Antonio based radio personality Joe Anthony started spinning their album on a regular basis, much to the delight of hard rocking Texans. This planted the seeds for what would result in Killer Dwarfs receiving a lot of attention south of Canada's border.

A worldwide recording contract with Epic Records eventually landed them an opening spot for IRON MAIDEN's sold out tour of Great Britain and sharing stages with such acts as DIO and MICHAEL SCHENKER across North America. The band soon received a nomination for Canada's prestigious Juno Award as Heavy Metal Album of The Year.

After taking a short break from touring, Russ started work on his first solo album. As well as working and recording with a number of other artists. During this time Russ also played live with a number of local players. After completing his first solo CD, Russ and the Killer Dwarfs decided to have a reunion to tie up some lose ends from the past. Recording a live CD/DVD in their hometown Toronto in 2001. This coincided with a few years of dates for the band in North America. Putting a period on the world of the Killer Dwarfs, they decided to pursue their own independent efforts.

Russ is currently the lead singer for Canadian Rockers “MOXY” and also his first release with his band “HardRoad” a band consisting of Canadian Veteran, Earl Johnson (Moxy)

Russ has recently taken on a new venture performing classics that span his entire career in a more scaled down acoustic show. Russ performs all the classics including some covers in a Storytellers style.
