Jack Ellis - The Barbershop Blues

 


Something for the weekend Sir? How about some jolly Blues for the hirsute? 

The Barbershop Blues’ is the new single from Jack Ellis. Jack Ellis is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter from the southernmost point of South Wales. Jack Ellis’ music incorporates real stories into its lyrics, and features alternative production values and sharp hooks that will resonate with fans of The Black Keys, Gary Clarke Jr, Rival Sons, Ben Howard, and Jeff Buckley. The song was recorded at Marleys Barbershop in South Wales to capture the edgy sound and story of a rock and roll barbershop.


“The Barbershop Blues' is a song written about being on the stage of a barbershop floor. All eyes watching, no room for error, whilst doing a theatrical dance around the barbershop chair and the customers ears”
