T.C. Elliott

T.C. Elliott is a storyteller: More fabricator and fibber than poet. More prone to narration than eloquence. He’s a blue collar lyricist in that they get the job done. That’s not to say his songs are devoid of emotion or depth. It is true, however, that they tend to have a straightforward, midwestern bent for polite bluntness. Yet, every once in a while there is a turn of phrase or an image that strikes the imagination, that adds to the story. His solid guitar playing and steady voice relate tales and ideas in a workmanlike fashion. He is an everyman who plays guitar because he enjoys it and writes songs because he has to: It is his calling.

T.C. writes and releases songs in a range of genres. From standing firm on Folk Rock to leaning heavily into Americana with his solo releases and sometimes sitting down in the mud of Post-Punk and Hard Rock with his one-man band, Dead Ambassaords, T.C. is never afraid to jump head first into whatever feels right at the time. Most recently, T.C. has been writing more and more Americana and Alt.Country songs and expects to have a new album out soon.

T.C. enjoys riding his motorcycle and spending time with his family including his wife Phoebe, his daughters Haley and Charlessa, Haley's husband Ian as well as his grandson, Rowan. In 2009, he earned his blackbelt in Tae Kwon Do. He has a commercial drivers license and conducts CDL examinations as a Third Party Examiner for the State of Missouri. T.C. has worked for the City of Columbia (Missouri) for nearly 19 years. In 2023, after decades away from college, he graduated with Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Missouri and is seeking his first publication as a poet.
