Quinn Sullivan
Quinn Sullivan (born March 26, 1999) is an American singer and guitarist from New Bedford, Massachusetts, United States. Sullivan began taking guitar lessons at age three. He has studied with Brian Cass of The Overclock Orchestra and the Toe Jam Puppet Band as well as Stan Belmarce. The first original song he wrote with Chris Waters was titled "Sing, Dance, Clap Your Hands". Sullivan first gained national media attention at age six when he appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
Quinn Sullivan
Twenty four-year-old Quinn Sullivan came to prominence as a young guitar virtuoso who, after a chance encounter with Buddy Guy at the age of 8, would go on to become a buzzed-about blues phenom.
When it came time to write and record his fifth album, Salvation, the singer-songwriter-guitarist was processing the sudden passing of his mother. The resulting 11-track album is his most personal. Salvation honors Quinn’s musical roots while forging his path forward as an emotive and engaging singer-songwriter.
“My mom was my guiding light on this record,” the New Bedford, Massachusetts-based artist says. “I’m not a religious person, but salvation, to me, means saving yourself from a traumatic experience. That’s what this album did for me.”
Quinn has performed at prestigious venues like MSG and the Hollywood Bowl, and appeared on national TV programs like CBS Sunday Morning, Late Night, Ellen, Oprah, and more. He has gone toe to toe with guitar greats such as Buddy Guy, Carlos Santana, and BB King, who entrusted him with playing his beloved “Lucille” guitar.
What has given Quinn staying power is his evolution as a songwriting artist. Over the years, he’s integrated his exceptional guitar talent into hooky song craft, in the spirit of artists such as Marcus King, Gary Clark Jr., the Tedeschi Trucks Band, and John Mayer. Quinn’s recent association with Trouble No More—the new ensemble sanctioned by the Allman Brothers to carry on their live-performance legacy—has also contributed to the depth and maturity evident in his latest work.
