According to Atlanta-based blues guitarist singer and songwriter Tinsley Ellis his new first-ever solo acoustic album Naked Truth is both “a departure and an arrival.” 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. Naked Truth is steeped in the folk blues traditions of Muddy Waters Skip James Son House Robert Johnson and even Leo Kottke. To the casual fan this might seem to be a new direction but for Ellis it’s an extension of his music as he taps into the raw essence of the blues. “This is a record I’ve always wanted to make and one that my longtime fans have been asking for” he says noting he’s included an acoustic mini-set in his concert performances for years. In the last 12 months Ellis has already performed over 100 solo shows many as co-bills with his Alligator label-mate Marcia Ball. “I’m having so much fun playing these shows” he says.
