Album number 11 for Rory Ellis has landed! A no frills yet perfect representation of Rory Ellis and harmonica virtuoso Christian Marsh’s current live show. This record “We Can’t Dance”, contains 11 brand new tracks of the finest Americana penned by Rory Ellis. It has been recorded with Rory using a National steel guitar, a. 1929 Stella wood body guitar and an octave mandolin to play rhythm. Add to that some of the most incredible melodies and underpinning, compliments of Christians Chromatic, Diatonic, Bass and Chord Harmonicas. A musically fresh style of album with lots of special moments, haunting, soulful and edgy, performed exactly as you would expect only at a gig. The minute you put it on, it’s like we’re right there with you in the room!
