Daniel Ellsworth & The Great Lakes on Tour

Our good friends and house show alums Daniel Ellsworth & The Great Lakes have been getting a lot of buzz lately, and rightfully so. In the past few weeks they’ve played several showcases at CMJ along with a fantastic set at Communion’s November showcase in Nashville. Their fast-paced six-song set reminded us quickly just why they’re one of our favorite bands to come out of Music City recently.

Just last week, their brand-spankin-new song “Passenger” debuted on Grey’s Anatomy. Couple that appearance with the band’s first Daytrotter session being recorded today in Rock Island, IL, and it’s a safe bet that the current buzz around this band just may grow exponentially as the rest of the country finds out what we in Nashville have been excited about for awhile.

The boys are on tour the rest of November, heading up and down the West Coast with a few stops in Texas before concluding their tour at Memphis’ famed Hi Tone Cafe. If you happen to be in any of the cities listed below, we highly recommend you run, not walk, to their show. Oh, and bring your dancing shoes, because these guys know how to throw a party. Check out the aforementioned “Passenger” below. It really showcases a different, more restrained side of the band and allows their harmonies to take center stage. We wholeheartedly approve.
