Wyatt Ellis reinvigorates traditional bluegrass once again with his latest single, a powerful rendition of Country Boy Rock ’N Roll, a song originally brought to life by Don Reno, Red Smiley, and The Tennessee Cutups in 1956. First discovering the track as a country song through one of his musical heroes, Marty Stuart, Wyatt soon uncovered the song’s roots. Lyrics that echo his own rural upbringing and go on to mirror his musical journey, highlight the enduring appeal of bluegrass and its ability to connect across generations. With his signature mandolin playing and lead vocals, Wyatt is joined by two of today’s most accomplished acoustic musicians. Trey Hensley contributes tenor vocals and powerful guitar work, while Michael Cleveland delivers an electrifying fiddle performance alongside Noah Goebel. Together, they breathe new life into this bluegrass classic while staying true to its spirit. “Country Boy Rock ’N Roll” proves that bluegrass can evolve without losing sight of where it came from. At just 16, Wyatt Ellis is one of the most exciting young voices in the genre. Building on the momentum of his debut album Happy Valley, he steps further into his role as a bandleader and vocalist. Inspired by the legends who came before him, Wyatt’s deep respect for tradition combined with a bold sense of creativity sets him apart as a torchbearer for the next era of bluegrass.
