A Reading For Russell and McGhie’s New Musical “Devil & The Deep,”

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. - While Graham Russell continues touring the U.S. and around world as half of the ‘80s hit-making duo Air Supply (www.airsupplymusic.com), he has also launched an exciting acoustic pop folk collaboration with singer-songwriter Katie McGhie.

Collectively known as Of Eden, the duo is set to perform at Regatta Bar in Cambridge, Mass., November 20 at 8 p.m. They will be performing songs from their 2013 full-length album Feel. Tickets can be purchased here: http://www.getshowtix.com/regattabar/moreinfo.cgi?id=3291

Prior to that show, Theatre East will present a reading of “Devil & The Deep,” a new musical featuring music and lyrics by Russell and McGhie, with book and additional lyrics by Melissa Bell.

The show is a re-imagining of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic “Treasure Island.” The reading takes place Monday, November 10 at 7 p.m. and Tuesday, November 11 at 1 p.m. at the Abington Theatre in NYC, located at 312 W. 36^th Street, between 8^th and 9^th Avenues.

The two met at an awards gala in 2012 and their passion for music instantly sparked a conversation. A few weeks later, McGhie met up with Russell to lend her voice to a new project he was working on. She sang background vocals on two Russell-produced Air Supply songs, “Want You” and “Desert Sea Sky.” After their first day working together, they were asked to do a show at a local pub. Their very first performance together was a hit and quickly evolved into Of Eden.

Drawing on Russell’s decades-long history as a songwriter (including Air Supply classics “Lost in Love,” “All Out of Love” and “The One that You Love”) and McGhie’s background as a singer (including one self-titled EP), the two have created a new sound using only their voices and a guitar.

This past year, in addition to writing for “Devil & The Deep,” Of Eden wrote songs for various movies. Russell and McGhie are currently working on their second album and planning more tour dates.
