Tinsley Ellis

Nashville Social Club 1105 South Carson Street, Carson City, NV, United States

Get ready for a soul-stirring night with Tinsley Ellis, the Atlanta-born blues powerhouse known for his spine-tingling guitar work and gritty, heartfelt vocals. With over 40 years of worldwide touring and 21 albums under his belt, Ellis now delivers his most personal work yet—Naked Truth, his first-ever solo acoustic album.

🎶 Steeped in the folk-blues traditions of Son House, Robert Johnson, and Leo Kottke, Ellis strips his sound down to the bone—just two guitars and a whole lotta soul. Each song is raw, real, and packed with road-worn wisdom.
