Tinsley rocking the crowd at the Rawa Blues Festival, Katowice, Poland. In addition to performing on the main stage, he also participated in a guitar workshop sponsored by the festival.
Tinsley wants to thank all of his fans that voted for Winning Hand as best Blues Rock Album in the 2018 BluesBlastMagazine.com Awards. Walter Trout won the category with an outstanding effort, proving that the Blues are alive and well.
Tinsley stopped over to see his friends at Chicago's very own WGN9 during his recent swing through town to promote his new Alligator Records release, Winning Hand. Check out this vid on the Midday Fix.
“ 'When they approached me, I was designated the rock guy of the tour.'
Tinsley Ellis at 56 was the youngest guy on the bill when he did the Blues at The Crossroads 2 tour in 2013 with James Cotton, Bob Margolin, Jody Williams, and Kim Wilson with The Fabulous thunderbirds backing. 'They were calling me Sonny Boy and Whipper Snapper and things like that. They really busted my balls, too, but I’m a better man for it.' "

"Throughout his career, Ellis has pursued tone and melody with Zen-like focus. 'I'm not a fast or flashy player,' he says. 'The people I hope to sound like are B.B. King on the blues side, and Billy Gibbons on the rock side - somewhere right in between there,' he relates. And throughout Winning Hand's 10 songs, he's in the zone." Read More

World renowned keyboardist, Chuck Leavell (Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, David Gilmour, Sea Level) headlined the Arches Boogie Piano Stage at the 2016 Cincy Blues Fest. Tinsley and crew had just finished their set at the Budweiser Main Stage and were able to hustle over to Chuck's location to say hello. Tinsley and Chuck have known each other for several decades and meet up from time to time at various shows. Chuck graciously invited Tinsley up on stage to accompany him on three tunes. A fine time was had by all.
Tinsley's newest release Red Clay Soul debuts on Living Blues Magazine's Radio Chart for June 2016 at No. 1, and continues to garner critical praise from critics and fans alike. Grant Britt, writing in the latest issue of Blues Music Magazine, calls Red Clay Soul "an almost perfect description of what Tinsley Ellis has been doing his whole career." Much thanks to everyone for their support!
