The Ellis Band

The Ellis Band

The Ellis Band hails from Durham, NC and puts a unique spin on American roots music. Steeped in country music traditions where the song comes first, Justice Ellis crafts down-home earworms that paint pictures and tell stories to make you laugh, cry, and dance. The Ellis Band combines those country bona fides with a healthy dose of Americana, garnishes of rock, funk, and a hint of soul. Propelled by Ellis’ powerful vocals, the band leaves no stone unturned while exploring the corners of America’s musical roots to create a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly new.

If you like Margot Price, Ray Lamontagne, Gillian Welch, Jason Isbell, or Tedeschi Trucks Band you’ll love The Ellis Band.

The Ellis Band is Justice Ellis on vocals and guitar, James Goldberg on guitar, Jeremy Anderson on drums, and Jason “Dr. Lunchbox” Myers on bass.
