DJ Rich Russo ... Rich Russo is creator and DJ of the free form radio show "Anything Anything with Rich Russo," which airs Sunday nights on WXPK 107.1 The Peak (NY)and 105.5 WDHA (NJ) and streams live over the internet. A lifelong New Jersey resident, Rich was inspired by personality-driven radio shows and NY/NJ tastemaker disc jockeys of the 70's and 80's and wanted to revive the art of the independent radio DJ. In 2008, Russo debuted Anything Anything on now-defunct WRXP where he had complete control over the airwaves, spinning music from both established and emerging artists' without the constraints of a dictated playlist or a strict format.

In 2011, Russo was named Best DJ in New York by the Village Voice Readers Picks. Other notable press include features or mentions in Rolling Stone Magazine, Huffington Post, NY Daily News, and the NJ Star Ledger, among others.

Russo also hosts and organizes live events, including Anything Anything branded concerts and music festivals in and around New York City.
