SUMMARY:Robert Ellis
DESCRIPTION:Recorded live to tape in just two days\, Robert Ellis’s exqui
 site new album\, Yesterday’s News\, is as stripped-down as it gets\, wit
 h the celebrated songwriter and producer’s delicate\, reedy tenor accomp
 anied only by nylon string guitar\, upright bass\, and the occasional pi
 ece of handheld percussion. The arrangements are harmonically sophistica
 ted here\, drawing on the open tunings and intricate fingerpicking of En
 glish songwriters like Nick Drake or Richard Thompson\, and Ellis’s perf
 ormances are similarly subtle and nuanced\, tapping into the bittersweet
  longing of Chet Baker and the playful poignancy of Bill Evans and Jim H
 all. While that might seem surprising coming off 2019’s raucous Texas Pi
 ano Man\, subverting expectations is nothing new for Ellis. Born and rai
 sed outside Houston\, he gained early acclaim for his piercing introspec
 tion and absorbing narratives\, but over the course of five solo albums\
 , he flirted with everything from Paul Simon and John Prine to Elton Joh
 n and Joni Mitchell in a series of sonic and visual transformations that
  ran the gamut from Redneck Steely Dan to Lone Star Liberace. NPR hailed
  his “musical daring and impeccable songcraft\,” while Rolling Stone pra
 ised his “sharp eye for storytelling\,” and the New York Times lauded hi
 s writing as an emotional “gut punch.” Yesterday’s News marks Ellis’s de
 but LP for Niles City Records\, an outgrowth of the famed Niles City Sou
 nd studio he and longtime collaborator Josh Block run in Fort Worth\, TX
