David Ellis
In this captivating episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I have the pleasure of sitting down with my dear friend, the immensely talented David Ellis. With a musical prowess that knows no bounds, David has established himself as an in-demand utility musician, wielding his mastery over guitar, dobro, mandolin, fiddle, and banjo with unparalleled skill and finesse.
Our conversation takes us on a journey through David's musical odyssey, from his formative years to his current endeavors. We explore the early bands that shaped his musical identity and the pivotal moments that propelled him on his path as a versatile and sought-after musician.
As we reminisce about our shared experiences and memorable gigs, from the historic wedding at the Stringbean murder site to the illustrious Frederick Brown Celebration, laughter and camaraderie abound. We even discover a surprising connection – both of us being just one degree of separation from Kevin Bacon.
Throughout our conversation, David's passion for music shines through, illuminating the joy and fulfillment he finds in his craft. His dedication to his artistry and his unwavering commitment to excellence serve as an inspiration to all who have the pleasure of witnessing his musical genius in action.
I invite you to join us for this lively and heartfelt conversation, filled with music, laughter, and the timeless bond of friendship. Sit back, relax, and enjoy as we celebrate the magic of music and the enduring power of connection. And don't forget to spread the word about the show – the more, the merrier!
