Ross Ellis Releases Prayerful Love Song "Love Blind"

Ross Ellis, known for penning hits for country music superstars such as Tim McGraw's "Neon Church," released the heartfelt new song "Love Blind." Listen HERE. The track, which was inspired by his romance with long-time girlfriend, Brittany, follows recent additions to his catalog including breakthrough song and No. 1 on SiriusXM's The Highway, "Buy and Buy," as well as recent fan-favorite and his first release with Sony Music Nashville, "Home To Me."  

"This song is a prayer from my heart," acknowledges Ellis. "A prayer that I can be the man the woman I love sees when she looks at me. I want to be the best version of myself for her and for me. That's what 'Love Blind' is all about."

Produced by Aaron Eshuis and written by Ellis alongside Zach Kale and "Buy and Buy" collaborator Allison Veltz Cruz, the heartfelt new track, part prayer and part reflection, finds the Monterey, Louisiana native crooning:
 
Tell all your angels / To work overtime / Stay on both shoulders / And keep me in line / You walked on water / And turned it to wine / So Lord make me better / And keep her love blind

The new track follows a series of formidable songs from Ellis, who was named an "Artist to Watch" by The Boot, including "Home for the Weekend" in 2017 and the hauntingly powerful "Ghosts" in 2018, which Rolling Stone named a "top song of the week."

About Ross Ellis 
Signed to Sony Music Nashville, Ross Ellis was born and raised in the small town of Monterey, Louisiana. At fifteen years old, he started the band, "Wayside" with his cousin and some high school friends. The band gained a strong following throughout Ellis' high school and college years, playing venues across Louisiana and Mississippi.

After graduating from University of Louisiana at Monroe, Ellis turned down multiple job offers to instead move to Nashville. After a month of living out of hotels, Ellis met singer/songwriters, Jameson Rodgers and Hunter Phelps, who were looking for a third roommate. After less than a year of working part time jobs, evening and weekend writing, and playing writer's rounds, Ellis caught the attention of BMI's Bradley Collins. A short time later, he signed at Big Deal Music.

In late 2017, Ellis was named Sirius XM's latest "Highway Find" with the release of his first single, "Home for the Weekend." His hauntingly powerful song, "Ghosts," reached the top 10 most played songs on SiriusXM's The Highway. He also celebrated a career milestone when fellow Louisiana native, Tim McGraw, released in October of 2018 the new single, "Neon Church," co-written by Ellis, Ben Goldsmith and Ben Stennis. Much of his early acclaim is no doubt due to soulful and personal tracks like "Buy and Buy" with country superstar Thomas Rhett telling Nash Country Daily "...it's one of the freshest songs on the radio."

The song went on to hit No. 1 on SiriusXM The Highway's Top 30 Countdown and has been featured on Apple Music's Breaking Country, Amazon's Introducing Country and Spotify's Wild Country. Since its release last fall, "Buy and Buy" has continued to receive a strong response from listeners as well reaching over 6 million in consumption to date and over 25,000 in sales. Earlier this year Ellis headlined Tin Roof's Inaugural "Nashville Hits the Roof" Concert Series Presented by SiriusXM's The Highway. While continuing to write and record, he has toured alongside the likes of Chris Janson, Brett Young, Chase Rice, Raelynn, and Eli Young Band.
