Singer/songwriter Ross Ellis is set to headline the first ever “Nashville Hits The Roof” Concert Series at Tin Roof locations across the country. Presented by SiriusXM’s The Highway, the free shows will begin at 8 p.m. and are first come first serve. Guests are encouraged to RSVP HERE if planning to attend.
“When I first moved to Nashville, I spent many of my Tuesday nights at the Tin Roof,” shares Ellis. “Tuesday is their songwriter night. It was a place I loved to go listen and share my own songs. Along the way I built some incredible relationships with other songwriters. It feels like a full circle moment for me to headline this tour for Tin Roof, a place that gives a platform for songwriters like me every week.”
Ellis signed with Big Deal Music for publishing in 2017, a deal that led to superstar Tim McGraw cutting his song “Neon Church” in 2018. In addition to McGraw, Ellis has had cuts by country artists Tyler Farr, Jordan Rager and most recently Gary Allan.
Ellis says, “I’m learning that there are certain songs that I have to keep for myself no matter what. ‘Buy and Buy’ was one of those songs (watch acoustic video above). I’m here to tell my story and if it isn’t candid, what’s the point?”
The song went on to hit No. 1 on SiriusXM The Highway’s Top 30 Countdown last month and has been featured on Apple Music’s Breaking Country, Spotify’s Wild Country and Pandora’s New Country.
While continuing to write, Ellis has toured alongside the likes of Chris Janson, Brett Young, Chase Rice, Raelynn, and Eli Young Band.
