Ellis Hooks (born 1974) is an American soul blues and electric blues singer and songwriter, who has released eight albums to date.

The AllMusic journalist, Thom Jurek, noted that Hooks " touches upon Wilson Pickett, Sam Cooke, and Otis Redding, but feels like one of the gritty New York streets Hooks has busked upon."
