"I've been such a big fan of Ellis' work since the early 90s" says Co-Host Tim Rice. "To have him the back seat of our mobile studio was an honor, not to mention just a fun time all around."
On the show, which clocks in at just under an hour, Ray, Tim and Jay talk with Ellis about his roots, the current folk scene, the traveling life of working folk artist and more.
Ellis even performs two songs from his latest album release. Plus Distracted Driving got a special improvised theme song written for them on the spot.

About Ellis Paul
Ellis Paul is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, bridging the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger.
