Scott Ellison & Walt Richmond - Shakin With The Blues

’’Enjoy Your Day’’ Album: ’’Walkin Through the Fire’’ Singer-songwriter, guitarist Scott Ellison emerged as a blues-rock powerhouse in his hometown of Tulsa, OK in the late 1970’s. With Eric Clapton’s and Freddie King’s backing bands at the time both hailing from the region, Ellison’s guitar shredding heavy blues style quickly brought him regional and then national attention. He first gained notice playing with Jessica James (Conway Twitty’s daughter) in 1977, and national blues audiences learned about him via his work in iconic bluesman Clarence “Gatemouth“ Brown’s touring band in 1980-81. He relocated to Los Angeles, CA in the mid-’80s, and honed his chops as a session player for everyone from The Box Tops to Gary “US“ Bonds to Peaches & Herb. By the early ’90s he finally took the helm as a leader, formed his own band, and opened for the likes of Joe Cocker, Roy Orbison, The Fabulous Thunderbirds
