| A mix of Ray Charles, Conway Twitty and Elvis Presley. He's been compared to Sam Cooke with his songs and his presentation. At 6'7" he's onstage in a big way but the delivery will leave you spellbound.Darryl,raised in North Carolina and Virginia, exposed at an early age to music by a family that had a musical heritage dating back to the 30's,shared the stage with artists such as, Matt "Guitar" Murphy, Delbert McClinton, The Bama Band, T. Graham Brown, New Ryders Of The Purple Sage, Steve Bassett, Robin Thompson and Page Wilson. He removed himself from music 20 years ago to raise a family. But has returned with a vengence. All new material and a smokin' blues band backing him up has resulted in packed house's everytime he straps on his guitar. A new CD is in the works and promises to be as strong as his live performances. The Band Backing Darryl Ellyson these days is comprised of George Jaye on Lead guitar, Greg Willard on Bass, Scott Faulkner on piano and David McNeer on Drums. Get out and support live music. Taking in one of Darryl Ellyson & Blue Light Districts live shows is an evening well spent. |
