ELLIOTT  AMBROSE is an American Country Music performer and singer/songwriter whose primary emphasis in on traditional country music.  His music is punctuated by the sounds of the rich twang of the telecaster guitar, and lyrics of traditional country storytelling.  His music resounds with stories of faith, family, and the struggles of the human condition in real America.

Ambrose has performed his music in front of thousands for more than 15 years in those small towns throughout America and in country music venues where “real” Roots music is valued.  He has performed the music of Merle Haggard, Buck Owens, Waylon Jennings, Jon Anderson, George Strait as well as the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynard, Marshall Tucker and just about any artist that has a “real” roots music reputation.

His songwriting prowess has resulted in several number one songs on the independent radio charts.  In July of 2016, Ambrose and his band charted the song, “Redneck Shuffle” at number one on the Indie World Country Music charts.  In March of 2017, Ambrose charted the song “Half Blind” number one on the Indie World chart.  Finally, in July of 2019, Ambrose and his band charted “Breakfast in Texas” number one on the Indie World Country Music Chart.   In February of 2017, Ambrose and his band were nominated as one of the three best new music acts of the year by New Music Weekly magazine of Nashville.

Shortly after that, Ambrose and his band played a showcase in Nashville.

Elliott Ambrose was born in West Hamlin, West Virginia.  He grew up listening to Flatt and Scruggs and the Beatles.  Ambrose learned guitar in his late teens but never considered a career in country music – instead he performed for audiences for the pure enjoyment of it. 

In 2002 he met up with a small band of enthusiastic would-be country musicians in a small bar just south of Brooksville Florida.  The result was the formation of a country band named Tyler Creek Road.  Ambrose sang and played guitar for the band.  Within a short period of time Ambrose and bandmate, Roger Warthen, (who also sang) were writing songs for the band.  Shortly thereafter, they recorded the band’s first album.  It was a modest effort but the experience motivated Ambrose to continue writing and recording music, even after the band broke up.  He’s been writing songs ever since.

Elliott’s philosophy is also his promise to his audience:

All music flows out of the same creative river and ultimately back again.  It is the musician who takes it, shapes it and forms it.  If he is successful, he finally reaches a moment in the music that is worthy of the listener’s ear.

 To that end, Elliott Ambrose commits his music.
