Dan Boketto

Dan Russell: the artist manager and advocate, concert promoter, producer, creative collaborator, video and film music supervisor; has helped launch a thousand ships (well, maybe just a few hundred!) throughout his lengthy resume. As the critical aide-de-camp to dozens of aspiring artists and proven superheroes, it seems he’s always been in demand through a voluminous 35-year professional career...Russell’s reputation in music circles is one of a man willing to stand unwavering in the gap.
That commitment led to decades of work with the Call and it’s lead singer Michael Been, Mark Heard, U2, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Sam Phillips, Andy Pratt, Bruce Cockburn, Switchfoot, Robin Lane, The Vigilantes of Love, Ramona Silver, Rachel Taylor, The Violet Burning and more. In 1998 Russell co- founded Soulfest, the first New England social justice music festival which has become an annual event attended by many thousands.
But, the desire to return to that earlier role, writing and performing his own work, never abandoned Russell. The ‘echoes’ kept dragging him back until finally, Russell deemed one important collaboration or promised business commitment to be the last one. Then, with official duties forestalled, the guitars came out of their cases and studio time was booked to record a series of his personal songs, the cryings of his own heart.

A four piece dusky pop-rock group consisting of Julia Maree (Vocals/Guitar), Erik Grimm (Guitar/Vocals), Tim Washington(Drums), and Catherine Parke (Bass/Vocals).
A combination of effected electric, raw folk, crafty lyrics and layered harmonies define Boketto the Wolf's live presence on the Boston music scene. Boketto the Wolf just recently released their debut album "Sleepless" which is available for purchase in person at a show or online at iTunes, CD Baby or Amazon.
