Russell Crowe has starred in some of the biggest blockbusters ever, from 鈥楲es Miserables鈥� to 鈥楾hor: Love and Thunder鈥�. He won an Oscar for Best Actor in 鈥楪ladiator鈥� in 2000, coming a long way from his antipodean beginnings.

He鈥檚 livening up summer in the UK by bringing 鈥楻ussell鈥檚 Indoor Garden Party鈥� to venues across the country in July. He promises an organic night of music and stories with his band The Gentlemen Barbers.

Russell鈥檚 first two choices come from Crowded House and Prince.
