In 2014, Elliott Morris walked on and quite simply, stole the show. Go and see him, now.” 〔http://www.elliottmorris.co.uk/about/〕 Elliott has also played at festivals including numerous slots at Celtic Connections, Glasgow in 2013, 2014 and 2015, and previous summer festivals include Hop Farm Festival, Towersey Folk Festival, Warwick Folk Festival, Beverley Folk Festival, The London Acoustic Guitar Show and Ullapool Guitar Festival.〔http://www.elliottmorris.co.uk/about/〕 His guitar playing is influenced by Michael Hedges and Eric Roche, and entails tapping, slapping, strumming and fretting and playing his guitar all at the same time.〔http://www.gigjunkies.com/band-reviews/paul-carrack-elliott-morris-at-the-symphony-hall-birmingham-uk-23rd-january-2015/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elliott Morris」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
