Elvis Costello (born Declan Patrick MacManus, 25 August 1954, London) is an English singer-songwriter and guitarist who emerged from the British punk and new wave scene in 1977 and has since built one of the most genre-spanning catalogs in rock - taking in new wave, country, jazz, classical, and R&B across more than 33 studio albums. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003 and has won two Grammy Awards and two Ivor Novello Awards. He tours regularly with his band The Imposters, which includes original Attractions members Steve Nieve and Pete Thomas.
Elvis Costello added further UK and EU dates to the 'Radio Soul!' tour in May 2026 due to high demand, including a sold-out show at London's Royal Albert Hall on June 15.
Costello extended his summer 2026 tour with new US dates running through September 2026, marking the first American leg of the 'Radio Soul!' shows.
Elvis Costello announced his 2026 headlining 'Radio Soul!: The Early Songs of Elvis Costello' tour in December 2025, focusing on material from 1977's My Aim Is True to 1986's Blood & Chocolate.
