@scenesharks: Russell Crowe’s Secret Music Career? People know Russell Crowe as Maximus Decimus Meridius, the fearless gladiator who became a movie icon. But long before he was battling in the arena, Crowe was chasing a completely different dream: music. At just 18, Crowe released a single called “I Just Wanna Be Like Marlon Brando” under the stage name Russ La Rock in 1982. Years later, he co-founded the Australian rock band 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, where he served as lead vocalist and continued building his reputation as more than just an actor. After that band disbanded, Crowe teamed up with Canadian musician Alan Doyle to form Indoor Garden Party. And this wasn’t just some forgotten celebrity side project. Crowe continues to perform with the group, and in 2024, Indoor Garden Party toured North America, including a stop in West Hollywood, to promote their latest album, Pros and Cons. From Russ La Rock to Maximus to Indoor Garden Party, Russell Crowe’s music career proves there’s a whole other side to the Gladiator star that many fans are only now discovering.
