Who are we? In a word, honest. In a few more: Yellow Light Maybe is the band that everybody could like. Few do, but everyone could. And that's okay with us. We're paying our dues. Spreading the word one city at a time, and eventually we'll get there. In the meantime, we'll continue working odd jobs, wasting our college degrees, all while enjoying an absurdly large amount of whiskey and cigars. The...re is only one promise we're willing to make: give us four minutes, and we'll give you a tasty jam to fist pump to in the car. Giddy up.

Singer-songwriter Jeff Ellis has always written about what he knows so its fitting that his fifth solo release and second for NewSong Recordings is based on his most recent experiences in the US Army Reserves. Ellis has served three deployments with two overs...eas since enlisting in 1998. He based the story that ties together The Line on his personal experiences as a Staff Sergeant and the ones relayed to him from his brothers in arms. His most suscint and powerful release yet, The Line is also his most stylistically diverse. While a common theme ties the material together, The Line crosses creative boundaries from acoustic roots to gritty garage rock to polished, heartfelt pop.
