Currently wrapping up a run of shows which saw him make stops in Pennsylvania at The Sellersville Theater and Arden Gild Hall in Delaware, Ellis will bring this leg of the tour to a close on April 8 in Asheville, NC and April 9 in Elkin, NC before picking up again Memorial Day weekend in Boca Raton, FL. So, what is he concentrating on? Ellis says that he will be performing a mix of the new record along with selections from his previous catalog and with more than four decades of music to choose from and some well-timed surprises; the shows often “Vary” from night to night.
“There were only a few tickets that remained for Sellersville and I think it was sold out,” he said with satisfaction. ”We focused a lot on the new “Devil May Care” album and songs from my past and the live album “Storm Warning” and things like that. Blues are more from the heart than from the head. There is a lot of improv and we definitely vary the setlist as well. We definitely want to focus a lot of attention on the new CD but there are so many standards that we do; we pulled out an old Freddie King song out of the blue the other night, I called it; there are songs that just kind of come and go. The band? Yeah, there’s quite a bit of improv and they follow me pretty well and I follow them pretty well I think.”
Nominated in 2021 for “Blues Artist of the Year” by The Bles Foundation for a Blues Music Awards and a stalwart in the genre, Ellis has garnered accolades, comparisons and praise for his guitar playing style, his recordings and live performances. So; how did he get into the blues?
“I initially got into the blues through the music of the British Invasion. Bands like The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds, The Animals and as time went on Cream came out; that was a real game changer. Then after Cream came The Allman Brothers Band and a friend of mine, his older brother said, “if you like that kind of music, you have to go see the guy where they are getting it all from” and we said; who is that? He said, “You’ve got to go see B.B. King.” There was a time when B.B. King was playing hotel lounges for a week at a time and whoever played this one particular hotel lounge near where I grew up in South Florida; whoever played that lounge had to do a teen matinee on a Saturday. I’m sure the bands hated doing that but B.B. King played for us teenagers and there was no looking back. I saw him and all of a sudden, I could see where Peter Green, Eric Clapton, Mike Bloomfield and Duane Allman were coming from and after that I got the chance to go see pretty much anyone who came through my area. I saw Muddy Waters several times, I saw Howlin’ Wolf and after that I started opening for these people when I was in college in Atlanta. I opened for Willie Dixon and pretty much anybody in the blues world that was coming through and then I got with Alligator Records in 1988 and the next thing I know I’m up on stage playing with Otis Rush and Albert Collins, Lonnie Mack, Buddy Guy and Koko Taylor and people like that; not to sound like a name dropper or anything but except for Buddy Guy; they’re all gone and that is kind of sad. So, whenever I do an interview I like to mention the people who came up with this music in the first place because Lord knows I didn’t make it up.”
“Devil May Care” is available through Alligator Records on various formats including CD and translucent red vinyl as well as online at most or all of the usual suspects and on Ellis’s website. To discover more about Tinsley Ellis please visit http://tinsleyellis.com/index.html.
