Description

Legendary blues guitarist, singer, songwriter, Tinsley Ellis returns to the Ute Theater!

Since his first album Georgia Blue on Alligator Records in 1988, Ellis has gone from local Atlanta club favorite to become an internationally touring blues giant, performing hundreds of nights per year.  Mega-star guitarist Joe Bonamassa calls Ellis “a national treasure.”  Over his career the eight time Blues Music Award nominee has shared the stage with legends of the genre like Otis Rush, Koko Taylor, Willie Dixon , Buddy Guy, The Allman Brothers, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert Collins.  In 2024, Ellis performed a handful of shows across the country with blues singer and pianist Marcia Ball.

In 2024, Ellis released his 20th album, Naked Truth on Alligator Records featuring production from Atlanta Roots musician Eddie 9V.  The acoustic album, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts is steeped in the folk blues traditions of Muddy Waters, Skip James, Son House, Robert Johnson and even Leo Kottke.  Tinsley will be releasing a following up  album entitled Labor of Love on Alligator Records in early 2026.

Join us at the Ute Theater on March 7th at 7:30PM for a night with a Blues guitar legend.

There will be table seating, elevated seating, and standing room to dance and let that blues guitar take you away.

Tickets are only $30 before the show and then $35 day of show/at the door.  Get your tickets now!
