ATLANTA, Sept. 26 (UPI) -- Rusty Anderson knows that being part of Paul McCartney's band certainly raises the profile of his first solo album, "Undressing Underwater."
"Everything's just evolved a lot in the last 4 1/2 years I've been playing with Paul," says Anderson. "It's certainly a huge part of my life, and playing these gigantic concerts and everything is a big perspective. I really enjoy making music, and I feel very blessed to be able to do it with great people like Paul."
Anderson has played on McCartney's last two studio albums, 2001's "Driving Rain" and the new "Chaos and Creation in the Backyard," and on the 2002 live set "Back in the U.S." He's also backing McCartney on the ex-Beatle's current North American tour.
McCartney, meanwhile, plays on the track "Hurt Myself" on Anderson's album.
A former member of the band Ednaswap, Anderson has also worked with Elton John, Carole King, Neil Diamond, Ricky Martin, the Wallflowers and Sinead O'Connor.
