“These concerts will be an absolute feast for fans of acoustic blues. Three towering talents take the stage together to bring you blues classics from the Delta, the Piedmont, and the Paramount record catalog of the ’20s and ’30s. Blues picker Andy Cohen is a connector between the legendary bluesmen of the last century (Big Bill Broonzy, Rev. Gary Davis, Honeyboy Edwards) and today’s generation of blues revivalists. As a youngster coming up in the ’60s folk revival, Andy began the explorations with “source” musicians that led to his current status as a virtuoso fingerstyle guitarist and “walking, talking folk-blues-roots music encyclopedia.” Eleanor Ellis is a celebrated master of the country and Piedmont blues—one of the most significant women in the acoustic blues genre, and William Lee Ellis is an acclaimed Americana/Blues guitarist whose father, Tony Ellis, was one of legendary Bill Monroe’s Blue Grass Boys and is now creating a new style of Americana / roots music that’s all his own.” —Thanks to Caffe Lena for their fabulous description of the Cohen, Ellis & Ellis experience.
