"Elliott and the Untouchables breeze in like a breath of fresh air. Sure of touch and swinging like mad, Elliott New's hollow-body Gibson will have you jiving around the furniture."

Elliott and the Untouchables, from Columbia, SC, perform the "real deal"... authentic, vintage blues. From jumpin' west coast swing numbers to burnin' slow blues and nasty slide guitar workouts, the Untouchables' repertoire is as diverse and powerful as the blues itself.

The band has taken their high-energy show to clubs and festivals across the US including the House of Blues, Indiana’s Bean Blossom Blues Fest, Asheville NC’s Bele Chere Festival, and more.

The Untouchables traveled to Ireland, opening for music legend Van Morrison at the Monaghan Blues Festival. Other international appearances include the Tremblant International Blues Festival in Quebec, Canada.

The band has released five CD’s on BluePoint Records. Their last release, “Voodoo Stew” has been nominated as Best Self-Produced CD in the International Blues Challenge. The CD showcases 12 original tunes, covering a variety of blues styles from swingin’ jump tunes to gritty juke joint numbers. Previous releases, “Smokin’ the Blues”, “Both Ends Burnin’”, “Danger Zone”, and “Last Meal” have been top sellers for the BluePoint label.
