SUN. 6/8 ELLIS PAUL Ellis
Paul is helping to define a new breed of American songwriter.
He was raised in a potato farming community in northern Maine
but moved to Boston to attend college and start his song writing
career. Ellis' songs became classics in this town and his reputation
as a shining star has solidified nationally, winning eight Boston
Music Awards, the Acoustic Underground Competition and then winning
the prestigious Kerrville (TX) "New Folk Award". USA
Today named him as the "Best Bet for Stardom" because
of constant radio airplay and years of endless touring...from
Alaska to Miami, coffeehouses to Carnegie Hall, the Newport Folk
Festival to The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His songs have been
featured in the recent Jim Carey hit movie, Me, Myself and
Irene. According to Performing Songwriter Magazine
"Ellis combines the sensibilities of Bob Dylan, Bill Morrissey
and John Gorka and delivers it with a passion that sets him apart
in the company of a new breed of Songwriters." Ellis records
for Rounder/Philo Records and has a reputation as one of the
country's hottest song writing and performing talents. "Ellis
Paul is now a national folk star and to many the quintessential
Boston songwriter: literate, provocative, urbanely romantic."
