About Tinsley Ellis’ most recent album, here’s what the critics say, “An exciting, emotional guitarist and a strong, evocative songwriter…One of modern blues’ greatest performers.” –Vintage
Guitar. “A legend of American blues music…An American music treasure…Ellis delivers a sermon on the power and glory of the blues.” –Premier Guitar. “Powerful, spine-tingling guitar and
gritty, soulful vocals.” –Relix.
Ellis has been recording and travelling the world for over four decades, delivering his feral, guitar-fueled, original electric blues-rock to ever-growing audiences at concert halls, festivals, and clubs. His music is steeped in the folk blues traditions of Muddy Waters, Skip James, Son House, Robert Johnson and even Leo Kottke. This marks his first appearance at the Opera House.
