Sugar Sweet | Grandpa Elliott | Playing For Change

Grandpa Elliott has been playing on the streets of New Orleans since he was six years old and it is time for his music and passion to meet the masses. Playing For Change recorded his album, Sugar Sweet, throughout the 2009 Playing For Change Band North American Tour.
Get Grandpa's album here: bit.ly/3rtKywK
It all started one evening at a barbeque when he began tapping his foot, slapping his hand against his knee and singing, Your lips are so doggone sweet to me, baby I'm afraid, if you kissed the ocean it would turn to lemonade" I remember thinking we could not get to a studio fast enough!!
I love this man with all my heart for his soul, sweet voice and power of conviction. He performs each song as if it was his last and puts every ounce of his giant heart into every note. Check out the album, support a great performer, and let's teach the world that some of the best music we have ever heard comes from the streets!!! From the people, for the people.
One Love,
Mark Johnson

You will be missed, Grandpa Elliott. Now you're sitting on a dock of the sky. 💙 You were a wonderful person and shined a light of a blessed soul. Good man with a big heart for music and for the people...

[@genegoodwin8925]

Love Grandpa Elliot, so sad he passed away before we had the chance to see him in person. I wish Playing for Change would make many more videos showing the street performers of the world. Love their videos.

Playing for Change, thank you so much for sharing Grandpa Elliott with the world. It's a shame knowing that there's so much beauty in the world that we just don't see if it weren't for people like you. Thank you, thank you.

A humble talent that shares the beauty of his soul... while touching ours. Much appreciated.

[@mnewman79]

I grew up watching him preform on the streets of New Orleans and I have to say I will never forget him as long as I live. He touches the heart of every person he meets.

[@user-justbeingme]

You're right my friend. Grandpa sings really from the bottom of his heart. I miss Grandpa Elliot from New Orleans too

Cada vez que escucho la voz de Granda Elliot se me pone la piel de gallina.. me emociona mucho su voz... Mucha suerte!

[@ZenStress]

Grandpa Elliott rocks! Grandpa Elliott for President!

[@1951RKP]

Most everyone attempts to sing from a very early age. Most don't sound as good as Grandpa Elliot. So regardless of when he started the end result is the man has talent. It's nice to see those who are just plain blessed with talent as they are much more app to do it for the pure love of the music.

[@northbearNL]

Rest in peace my man, you inspired me to start the harmonica

[@666beastie8]

Love you Grandpa. the best thing in America. from Stan in Belfast North Ireland🇬🇧

[@Kookoo347]

[@ThneskoThanatos]

He is such an amazing human being, Hopefully everyone in the word had just as much LOVE as he had

[@allibonenes]

I think He is just great his voice, his disposition and his conviction to each song. He is the real deal as far as musicians go. I do like the fact that Play For Change finds the real gems.
