Event information
Dave Ellis left Liverpool and headed to London
with his guitar at the tender age of 18. He was
soon headlining at major venues, getting rave
reviews for his extraordinary guitar playing,
duetting with Gordon Giltrap and touring with his
hero Bert Jansch. Melody Maker listed him as
“one of the 6 best guitarists in the world.”
With the release of his solo album, radio and
TV beckoned and after a spot on the Old Grey
Whistle Test, Dave decided to form ‘The Dave
Ellis Band’. Boo joined as the bass player and
soon became the main singer. The pair became
a solid partnership renowned for their unusual
blend of powerful songwriting, exquisite guitar
playing and beautiful harmonies
In recognition of Dave and Boo and their continued support we are giving attendees a free drink tonight to toast Dave and Boo. So get you voucher at the desk.
