'In the pipeline': William Russell Ellis reflects on 25 years with UC Berkeley

William Russell Ellis’ songwriting career had an unlikely start. After reading an article about a writer cleaning houses to get by, Ellis decided to greet his family’s housekeeper every day by singing her name a habit that turned into a song, aptly named “Eliza.” “I said to myself, ‘Russell Ellis, you are just one generation away from slavery. You have the right to invisibilize no one,’ ” Ellis said. “And then, for the rest of the year, songs keep coming up.” Since then, Ellis has recruited his children to help him produce his music with Berkeley Cat Records, including a track, “Oom Chugga,” about motivating young people to vote.
