Name: Robert Ellis
Track name: Friends Like Those
Home town: Houston, Texas
Who? The 23 year-old Houstonian channels heroes like Conway Twitty and a sprinkling of James Taylor to create delicate folky-bluegrass songs to relax in the smoking chair with.
Like these? Then try this: Ray LaMontagne, Ryan Adams, AA Bondy
Why now? Ellis will be playing two shows in London next week, on 5 and 6 March at the Borderline and Hoxton Bar and Kitchen respectively. His new album, Photographs, is out on 26 March.
Sounds like: A hand-held walk through a balmy field.
