He has sung a variety of musical styles throughout his career including: pop rock, traditional Southern gospel, contemporary country music, and rhythm and blues.

Taff left the Imperials after four and a half years to pursue a solo career.

He eventually became a regular artist on the Homecoming Tour and joined the Gaither Vocal Band as a baritone in 2001. He toured as a member for almost three years. Early in 2004, following the deaths of Vestal Goodman and Jake Hess, Russ decided to step down from the Vocal Band and return to his solo artist status on the tour.

Help Me Lyrics
Artist: Russ Taff
Lord, help me walk another mile, just one more mile
I’m tired of walking by myself
Lord, help me smile another smile, just one more smile
I know I can’t make it on my own
I never thought I needed help before
I thought that I could get by, by myself
But now I know I just can’t take it any more
So with a humble heart, on bended knees
I’m begging You, please, help me
Come down from Your golden throne to me,
come down to me
i need to feel the touch of Your tender hand
Remove the chains of darkness, let me see,
Lord let me see
Just where I fit into Your master plan
I never thought I needed help before
I thought that I could get by, by myself
But now I know I just can’t take it anymore
With a humble heart, on bended knee
I’m begging You, please, help me
With a humble heart, on bended knees
I’m begging You please, help me
