When Tim Taylor, Billy Youngblood, and Will Youngblood won the OAC’s 2018 Battle of the Bands, they decided not to use the concert opportunity that was part of their prize simply to put their own band on the stage for a full-length show, but to gather other musicians to pay tribute with them to the most influential rock band in history.

It’s just a myth, of course, but if it were true, firebrand Eli Cook ( https://sable.madmimi.com/c/8674?id=383341.12867.1.3f029d43f878113296631e3054b80a76 ) could have bragging rights, as his scarifying solo-country blues chill like a hellhound on your trail.” – Guitar Player (2007) ========== Eli Cook is a mystifying soul. He’s a keen observer and a provoking thinker…but with swagger! All under that messy blonde hair is a passionate heart with fingers of silver and gold that recalls John Lee Hooker, Chris Smither, and Chet Atkins, mixed in with a dirty, grungy sound. It’s clean playing mind you; it’s just his fingers are covered in the dirt left over from the crossroads. For more information about Eli Cook, including performance videos, please see our website!
