Enjoy Your Day Album: t. ly, kmEK Walkin Through the Fire Singersongwriter, guitarist Scott Ellison emerged as a bluesrock powerhouse in his hometown of Tulsa, OK in the late 1970 s. With Eric Clapton s and Freddie King s backing bands at the time both hailing from the region, Ellison s guitar shredding heavy blues style quickly brought him regional and then national attention. He first gained notice playing with Jessica James (Conway Twitty s daughter) in 1977, and national blues audiences learned about him via his work in iconic bluesman Clarence Gatemouth Brown s touring band in 198081. He relocated to Los Angeles, CA in the mid 80s, and honed his chops as a session player for everyone from The Box Tops to Gary US Bonds to Peaches Herb. By the early 90s he finally took the helm as a leader, formed his own band, and opened for the likes of Joe Cocker, Roy Orbison, The Fabulous Thunderbirds
