DEAD RINGER
Dublin Rock with Bigger Ambitions
Dead Ringer was where Russell Taylor's professional journey truly took Shape. Two eras. Two Chapters. One Mission - to play original music and reach audiences far beyond Dublin.
From the early five-piece to the later line-up. Dead Ringer lived for the stage, the songs, and the belief that hard work and heart could take a band anywhere.
Russell's playing became a focal point — expressive, precise, and impossible to ignore.
"We're in this for the long term and we have what it takes to deliver at the highest level."
