DVR Rewind | Elvis Costello On Letterman
By Andy Kahn Apr 24, 2015 • 2:07 pm PDT
Last night iconic singer-songwriter Elvis Costello made his 27th appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. For what was likely his final performance with Letterman hosting, Costello was joined by the vocal group The Quills who harmonized alongside his acoustic guitar.
The foursome performed a medley that meshed Costello’s cohort Nick Lowe’s “When I Write the Book” with the Elvis Costello & The Attractions song “Everyday I Write the Book.”
Costello plays Sunday in Seattle at The Paramount Theatre as part of solo tour the precedes a summer tour with his band The Imposters supporting Steely Dan.
