Tinsley Ellis arrives in Cortland, NY, on Friday, May 31, for a solo acoustic performance at Rose Hall. An exciting, emotional guitarist and a strong, evocative songwriter, one of the greatest modern blues 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 with gritty, soulful vocals. RelixTinsley Ellis has brought his music to fans live in person to all 50 United States, as well as in Canada, across Europe, Australia, and South America. He earned the love and respect of many of his fellow musicians, having shared stages with Christone Kingfish Ingram, The Allman Brothers, Warren Haynes, Oliver Wood, Buddy Guy, the Tedeschi Trucks Band, Govt Mule, Widespread Panic, and more. Over the years, legends including Otis Rush, James Cotton, Gregg Allman, Jimmy Buffett, Son Seals, Koko Taylor, and Albert Collins invited Ellis to join them on stage. Mega-star guitarist Joe Bonamassa calls Ellis a national treasure. Now, with Naked Truth, Ellis will bring his music directly to his fans. Two guitars and a car, he says of the simplicity of his North American touring situation. When folks come to see me, I'll have the guitars I used on the record with me, so what fans hear on the album is what they'll get live. It's not easy. Now I'm the whole band, and there's nowhere to hide. It's scary every single time I go up on stage alone. But nothing could be more honest.
