Doc Elliot

Singer/Songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Doc Elliot has been performing professionally since the age of 14.  An Oceanside California native, Doc has criss-crossed the states in an old 1970's purple Greyhound bus to play his music for new and old fans alike.  He has been recognized as an accomplished songwriter (most recently with the hit, "Greater Cincinnati") and performer.  Doc has opened for the likes of Canned Heat, Leon Russell, David Allan Coe, The Marshall Tucker Band, Hal Ketchum, Lukas Nelson, A.J. Croce and many others. 

Heavily influenced by Leon Russell, Hank Williams Jr and Merle Haggard, Doc Elliots’ unique and distinctive sound caught the attention of the Echo Hill Records label head and the 22 year-old was promptly signed by the team in August of 2018. Leaving his hometown of Oceanside California, Elliot hit the road in his ’72 purple Greyhound bus and landed deep in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. A year later Echo Hill Records released the new Kinky Friedman album, “Resurrection”— with half of the album co-written by Doc Elliot. Simultaneously, Echo Hill Records released “The Rowdy Kind”— Doc’s album.

Produced by Outlaw Country rocker Jaime Wyatt and three-time Grammy winner Justin Guip (Levon Helm), “The Rowdy Kind” fuses the old with the new, the dark with the light. The album takes you on a journey across the Americana musical landscape. Featuring eight original tracks and two covers, “The Rowdy Kind” is a well rounded and thoughtfully put together album. Already spinning on Sirius XM Outlaw Country, Doc Elliot is gearing up for a coast to coast 2020 tour in support of “The Rowdy Kind”.
