J.T. Anderson

Bass/Vocals

J.T. Anderson grew up in rural South Carolina listening to the blues late at night on WLAC-AM out of Nashville, Tennessee.  Seeing a blues band play at a local juke joint struck a chord with J.T. and inspired him to pick up the bass. He and his bass, "Miss Linda", have provided the foundation for countless blues and R&B bands in South Carolina for over a quarter century. J.T. has played all over the US, including appearances all the way from the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival to New York City's Central Park and Lincoln Center. He played with South Carolina bluesman Drink Small for 7 years prior to joining Elliott and The Untouchables in 1997.

"The rhythm section of J.T. Anderson on bass and David Hunt on drums... these two guys are like links in a chain... they're greasy and locked tightly."
